The Janome Skyline S5 Anniversary Edition is designed to handle everything from everyday sewing and home décor to high fashion, patchwork, and quilting. Its spacious 8.3" x 4.7" work area gives you plenty of room to manage larger projects with ease. With 170 built-in stitches, 10 one-step buttonholes, and 4 fonts, this machine offers a wide range of creative options for every type of sewist. The 9mm stitch width allows for bold decorative stitching, while the top cover makes it easy to view and select your favorite stitch styles. Built for precision and performance, the Skyline S5 Anniversary Edition delivers excellent stitch quality at speeds up to 1,000 stitches per minute. Convenient features like the needle up/down function, speed control slider, automatic thread cutter, and Superior Needle Threader 2 help make sewing smoother and more efficient. The machine also includes Adjustable Foot Pressure, Superior Feed System Plus, and an extra-wide extension table to support strong, consistent fabric feeding on a variety of materials. With thoughtful accessories, including two needle plates, a knee lifter, and a commemorative anniversary bonus case, the Skyline S5AE is ready for both practical sewing and creative inspiration. Superior Feed System Plus (SFS+) The Superior Feed System+ uses a 7-piece feed dog that moves in a box feed motion rather than the traditional elliptical motion. This allows all feed teeth to rise at the same time, grip the fabric evenly from below, and move it smoothly through the machine. At the end of each movement, all feed teeth drop together, preventing fabric shifting while the needle is in the fabric. Combined with Adjustable Foot Pressure, SFS+ gives these models strong, consistent feeding for a wide range of fabrics. Changing out the needle plate could not be easier on the Skyline S5AE. Simply remove the extension table, raise the needle and presser foot, push down the needle plate release lever, swap the needle plate out for the new one, lock it into place, and you are ready to sew. The S5 offers 91 unique needle positions. These different positions allow for more detail in decorative stitches and stunning fine adjustments in all stitch creations. And with the 9mm stitch width, this sort of bold detail can be easily appreciated.
