Stitches and Needle Positions

Choose from 120 different stitches and 7 buttonholes. The Skyline S3 offers 71 unique needle positions in order to get pinpoint accuracy for decorative stitching, appliqu and free motion quilting. There is also an array of standard feet and accessories including Automatic Buttonhole foot, and dust cover.

Convenience Features

Right by the needle, youll find a start/stop button for sewing without the foot control and a reverse button. There is also a locking stitch button and needle up/down button. The start/stop button allows the machine to sew without using the foot pedal. This feature is great for sewing long seams or for quick mending. The reverse button allows you to easily backstitch for locking seams. With the tip of your finger, this conveniently located button can also be used to stop a stitch pattern before its completion. The locking stitch button ties off the end of the thread. No need to backstitch to lock a seam. This is ideal for securing seams on delicate fabrics or when using decorative stitches. Thread the machine up to the needle and then let the built-in needle threader take over to get the thread through the eye of the needle. The Backlit LCD screen makes it much easier to see what you’re creating.

Superior Feed System Plus

Even consistent fabric feeding courtesy of the Superior Feed System Plus, featuring a 7-Piece feed dog to ensure that even the thickets, multi-layer projects are able to move under the needle with precision and ease.
