Janome Spotlight: What Makes the M8 & M17 Stand Out

The Fiber + Fabric Craft Fest is just 3 weeks away and we're getting ready to head to Rosemont. Taking place April 30-May 3, this is the largest crafting event in the Midwest, and we can't wait to see you there!

Today we've got the spotlight on Janome. Blair walks through the Continental M17 and M8, highlighting key features of these machines that will be showcased at the festival.


We’re supplying machines for five classrooms at the event, and pre-sale is now open. Featured machines include favorites from BERNINA, Brother, Janome, PFAFF, and Husqvarna Viking. If you’ve been considering a new machine, this is a great opportunity to take advantage of show pricing!
📍 1216 E Central Rd, Arlington Heights, IL
📞 847-394-4590

The festival features 200+ classes across quilting, yarn arts, garment making, mixed media, cosplay, mindful making, and more. You’ll also find hands-on learning, industry-leading machines in classrooms, and a large exhibit hall filled with inspiration.

Visit us in booths 1017, 1023, 1031, 1117, 1217, 1225, and 1231, alongside many sewing machine brands, fabric, and notions.
