I have found several sizes of machine quilting needles and it is important to get the correct size. How do you determine which size fits your project?

How much does the binding attachment cost?

I live in Canada, but my dealer told me that the binding attachment is $150.00 and every time she demos it, she sells it. I'm hoping to see a demo soon... It sounds wonderful.

This is the sewing cabinet/table I like...trying to figure out if the Jamone will fit.

the janome will sit ok, however it is much more comfortable to have a sewing table to set the machine in. janome on line has the table for the 7700. ihave one and wow what a difference.

qulting needle 14 is for thicker material. I use material tht is it a tighter weave...stuff like whayt they use for curtains. I can get it for 3.99 a yard at a fabric store near buy. Its nice and heavy. quilting needle #11 is good for regular material and going through the batting.

So far the only size table for the 7700 that I know of is the Koala...sooo expensive. I really want one that I can put inside the table that you can not see the sewing machine when not in use

Keep us posted as to what you find please. I would love to have a proper table for mine that hides it away. Mine "lives" on the kitchen table as what was going to be my sewing room is now taken up with a longarm and frame. Believe me, I'm not complaining!!! I will sew on the kitchen table forever to have my longarm!!

Hi Carol. I just re-read your post and realized that you said that you have the binding attachment tool. I thought you said that you "want" it. I found a good photo instruction on Janome.com - here is the link: http://janomelife.wordpress.com/2010...omment-page-1/ They recommend that you follow the steps provided with the tool up to #4 and then follow their posted steps. It looks like the cat's pyjamas!!
