This feature enhances the decorative possibilities and versatility of the machine. The machine also offers adjustable stitch length, which can be controlled using a dial. This allows you to customize the stitch length according to your preferences or the requirements of your sewing project. The adjustable stitch length feature ensures that you have flexibility and control over your sewing projects. I found it simple to remove the table to sew a waistband on to a skirt I was making. I also tried out the blind hem stitch to take up a pair of jeans – it was really straightforward to switch the presser foot and the stitch was easy to use. Two dials (selector/zig zag width, length) means the Janome 219s is so much more versatile than similarly priced single dial models. Darning Plate More advanced machines will offer a wider range of stitch options but these are more than enough for most dressmaking and quilting needs. How portable is the Janome 219-S?
