Janome Unveils New Memory Craft Embroidery Machine Line

Building on the legacy of the original Memory Craft 8000, the first professional-style home embroidery machine released in 1990, Janome continues its tradition of pioneering innovation by leveraging its expertise in industrial robotics and precision design.

"This new Memory Craft series represents a bold new chapter for Janome's mid-line embroidery collection," said John Ryan, Vice President of Business Development at Janome America, Inc. "We're making machine embroidery more approachable, more creative, and more fun for a broader audience—from beginners to seasoned sewists."

Three New Machines, Endless Possibilities

All three models in the collection will launch with MSRPs under $2,000, making them ideal entry points for new machine embroidery enthusiasts while still offering advanced features for experienced creators.
