Yippee I am the proud owner of a Janome 500e!
I have been busy setting it up and getting to know it today. My poor family didn't see me much today until I made them each a little something!
A FSL bookmark for hubby and some FSL hearts for the rest of us. My MIL sat watching these stitch out and she was amazed. She has never seen a machine do this before.
The bookmark is from lianestitch and the hearts are from sew forum(they are actually jewellery but we will use them for bag tags).

17369545918I have had mine since October and love the way it stiches but have a few problems that they can't seem to fix. I have to re load my bobbin quite often when changing thread because it cuts off to short. Have been told nothing they can do about it. Also my threader doesn't always work. When I took it back of course it worked for dealer but have 2 friends who are having the same problem with threader and I also have turned off the bobbin notification bacause too much was left on bobbin

Sorry to hear you have had some issues with your machine. I hope it can be sorted soon for you
76409Congrats i know how excited you are, as i have had mine since just before Christmas. I am so delighted with mine, the only thing i have had to adjust is the bobbin thread. When the message comes up not enough thread to finish your project, there is still too much thread to use so needs to be taken down or taken off and watch the last little bit sew. I have used the yellow dot bobbin case and all good no adjustments needed. Your designs are great, i have made many book marks with these patterns from felt and they are super gifts. Enjoy your new machine, and i hope you have lots of projects to make. Sandra.

Thank you. I have the same bobbin warning with my 350e with the bobbin almost half full! Maybe the technician is able to adjust it. I have never thought to ask.
24331Oh, goody, goody, goody. Have a great time learning all its tricks!
66912Oh lucky U. And wow, what a great sized hoop. Looks like you are getting well acquainted with your new addition. Hope you continue to enjoy using your Janome.

360660Congratulations. I just got mine too. Had to sell my 350E though, DH was just diagnosed with Esophageal cancer. I wanted to take it back but he said no way. We will get through this.

52686Congratulations I know you wanted one since they were released. Did you keep your 300E. I did so have best of both worlds as trade in value isn't much these days.
Love your lace. I can see you won't be getting sunburnt anytime soon.
Check your PM

I did keep my other machine but I am thinking of sending it to a new home once I get the smaller hoops for my new machine. My DD says NO she will use it, but I suspect after she has used the 500e a few times she will change her mind!
29726Congrats!! Isn't it fun fun fun... I get lost in my room often. Just so relaxing to me.
111385Congratulations, Karryn...so happy for you....I know you will have such fun getting to know "her"...lovely stitch outs!
3184962748Congratulations! I am sure you will have many happy hours with your new "baby". I got one a few weeks ago, and wish I had more time to play! It has lots more embroidery bells and whistles than my 10000. Hope you enjoy yours. Hugs, Cece

I am amazed how much more this machine can do compared to my other one. I am enjoying seeing everyone's makes on theirs too.
6694Does it run nice and quietly ? I was at a school fair at Xmas and a lady on a stall had a Janome embroidery machine I was surprised at how quiet it ran my Brother inovi ise 750e sounds very noisy compared
