I also use a 2.2 stitch setting. Mode 2 #39 is the Patchwork Piecing Stitch. With this setting I use a 1/4" foot specially made for a Janome.
I found that Piecing stitch just the other day. But I have to move the needle as far right as it will go to the 9. And with the 1/4 inch foot I'm getting a regular 1/4 inch seam allowance. If I use that clear open toe foot and run the cloth along the edge it's scant. But it doesn't seem to feed all that well. Is it possible something is wrong with the machine?
It's good to hear from someone that has a Janome. When you mentioned the Modes, etc. I know what you're talking about.
Also, how do you save in memory?
As you've probably figured out, I haven't had any instruction on the machine. I bought from a place that has no "after the sale customer service".
