I finally got it--my new Janome350E and I love it! Now I need to know has anyone used the thread art rayon threads on this machine? it is so much cheaper than the madiera I have been using. any suggestions?

I cannot answer your thread question because I have a Bernina, but I wanted to say

CONGRATS ON YOUR NEW MACHINE!!!! I hope you have 100s of fun hours with it.

Woohoo - a new machine!!!!!!!!!!! Don't you feel like a kid on Christmas?

Don't know for sure about the thread either and I don't know what the thread is like, but I've read articles/projects where any "special" thread is wound up in the bobbin and you practically embellish the block upside down.

Congrats on your new machine! :) I don't know about Thread Art rayon thread, but I use their cotton thread all the time.

Congrats on your new machine! :lol:

Well, I was really excited until about an hour ago. I was embroidery along and all of a sudden the machine made a noise and error came up--I followed insturctions and took project out but now my hoop holder will not close all the way up and designs will not center. any suggestions?

Enjoy!

what brands does everyone else like best in their embroidery machines?

I'm glad you got your new machine. Hope you get an answer to the problem soon.

Congrats on the new machine! I know you'll enjoy it.

:thumbup: great that you got a new machine.. :thumbdown: too bad you are already having problems, hopefully they are just teething problems as Janomes are usually pretty good machines from what i hear...I also cant help you with your thread as i have only used Gutterman myself..

he fixed it while I grocery shopped this morning!! now, I plan to really enjoy it! thanks for all your comments!

I hope you have lots of fun with your new machine :D :D :D

Now we just have to work on it not happening again! It is terrible when your machine isn't there for you! :?

Congratulations on your new machine. I have a Bernina and I use Isacord thread for embroidery.

i like YLI threads and i have some Signature Threads.

I use Isacord and it seem to work really well.
