The Janome 550e Embroidery machine is a wonderful machine. Great for embroidering all your favourite designs, making embroidery designs, in- the- hoop projects, quilt labels, adding embroidered monograms, and personalizing a wide array of gifts.
I have 4 beautiful little girls in my world. I wanted to make them something personalized for Christmas, but what to make? Little girls, as well as big girls, like purses. Great for carrying your prize possessions. This is what I made for them.

If you would like to learn more about what a Janome Embroidery machine can do, you are invited to attend our virtual Saturday Embroidery retreat, “Let’s Explore Embroidery“. This learning opportunity is being offered by Janome Canada Educators only through participating Janome Canada dealers. There are 2 dates to choose from : Saturday 30th January 10am – 3pm EASTERN and Saturday 6th February 10am – 3pm PACIFIC. This virtual class is aimed at beginner to intermediate machine embroiderers and those who want to find out more about what their embroidery machine does. There will be a lecture/demo presentation to start with about how to hoop correctly, needles, threads, how to transfer designs to your machine and how to open them up on the machine screen, what are all the machine icons for, and more. We will then make 4 delightful in-the-hoop embroidery projects with assistance from our educators during this virtual class. The embroidery designs and a supply list is provided to registered attendees at these classes. Any Janome embroidery machine with a minimum 5×7 inch hoop size and a USB port to transfer designs is required for this class. If you are interested, send a message in the comment box below and we will let you know which of our Janome Canada dealers are participating so that you can register. But do hurry as both classes are filling up fast and registration will close soon.
Here are some pics to whet your appetite – projects we will be embroidering – Would you like join us for some creative embroidery fun and learning??
*** Please note that we are not taking registrations for this class on this blog nor direct with Janome Canada. These are Virtual classes through our dealers and so you will need to contact your local participating dealer to register for these virtual classes.
