Telecast Thursday - Janome Circular Sewing Attachment: Intersecting and Overlapping Circles

I'm back from my spring break and ready to get back into the quilting mode! This Telecast Thursday I have another video about the Janome Circular Sewing Attachment. On previous Telecast Thursdays I've shown you how to attach this attachment, stitch simple circles and use your decorative stitches to create more complex circles. This week I'll show you how to use this attachment to create overlapping and intersecting circles. Things get really intricate!

You can watch this video below or on my Youtube channel.

If you have the Janome Circular Sewing Attachment, I hope you've been having some fun playing with it. You can create some really amazing designs with this attachment and I think it would be great to use it to create a modern quilt and then fill the background around the designs with some filler designs, such as swirls or pebbles. Hmmm, sounds like another project I'll have to try!

Next Telecast Thursday I'll show you another way to use the Janome Circular Sewing Attachment, so tune in.

Telecast Thursday - Janome Circular Sewing Attachment: Decorative Stitches

Happy St. Patrick's Day and welcome to another Telecast Thursday!

This week I'm continuing with information on the Janome Circular Sewing Attachment. Previously we learned how to attach this attachment and how to sew simple circles with it. This week we're moving on to more intricate circles using the decorative stitches on the sewing machine.

My Janome Horizon Memory Craft 8900 QCP sewing machine comes with hundreds of decorative stitches and the ability to adjust the width and length of them, mirror them, or even flip them horizontally or vertically. This provides the user with the opportunity to create thousands of decorative stitch patterns! The Janome Circular Sewing Attachment gives me the opportunity to play with these decorative stitches while creating complex circular designs.

You can watch the video below or on my Youtube channel.

I've got more ideas on how to use this attachment, so stay tuned for more ideas in upcoming Telecast Thursdays.

Telecast Thursday - Janome Circular Sewing Attachment: Stitching Circles

In a previous Telecast Thursday I gave you an overview of the Janome Circular Sewing Attachment; this week I'm going to show you how to stitch circles with it.

It's an easy and effective attachment to use - just watch out for that pointy pin! Much like using my rotary cutter - cut and close, cut and close - I always want to replace the plastic cap on the pin as soon as possible to avoid injury. I've jabbed myself a few times with it and it hurts, so do as I say, not as I do, and keep that cap on unless you really need to use that pin!

You can watch the video below or on my Youtube channel.

Next week I'll show you more uses for this amazing attachment.

Telecast Thursday - Janome Circular Sewing Attachment Overview

I've found the perfect tool to create circles on my Janome Horizon Memory Craft 8900 QCP sewing machine: the circular sewing attachment. The one I purchased, #202106009 fits on my machine and will also work on the Janome Horizon Memory Craft 8200 QCP machine. Check with your local Janome dealer or on-line to see if this attachment fits your sewing machine or if there is another option for you.

This attachment can be used to create a variety of effects, but first you have to know how it works and how to attach it to your sewing machine.

Watch the video below or on my Youtube channel for an overview of this multi-use attachment.

I'll have more blogposts and videos on this attachment so you can see all the different ways it can add intricacy to your quilt projects.
