JANOME
Janome is a Japanese company that is one of the leading manufacturers of sewing machines worldwide, with manufacturing plants in Japan, Taiwan,
and Thailand. Around 1862, William Barker and Andrew J. Clark began producing the "The Pride of the West" machine, later calling it the
"New England Single Thread Hand Sewing Machine" after moving the plant to Orange, Massachusetts in 1867. Over the next few years, the
New England machine and the "Home Shuttle" were their two most significant products. In 1882, the company reformed under the name New Home
(a combination of the labels New England and Home Shuttle). In Japanese, the word Janome (pronounced Ja-NO-me) means "eye of the snake."
The company earned the name in the 1920s when founder Yosaku Ose, a pioneer in Japanese sewing manufacturing, began to use a round metal bobbin
system instead of the traditional long shuttle. The Japanese thought the new round bobbin looked like a snake's eye, and from the innovative design,
a name was born. In 1960, New Home and the "New Home" brand were purchased by the Janome Sewing Machine Company of Tokyo, Japan. Janome
was the first to develop a computerized machine for home use (the Memory 7, in 1979), the first to offer professional style embroidery to the home market
(the Memory Craft 8000, in 1990) and the first to offer a long-arm quilting machine for home use (the Memory Craft 6500P, in 2003. Machines produced
by Janome range from basic sewing, quilting and embroidery through to specialty machines for overlocking (serging), embroidery, fibre arts, machines
for schools and compact models. The range includes electronic and computerized machines that can be updated via software and there is a treadle
for power-free sewing. Janome has been leading the industry with such innovation ever since.

We have a full bench with machines that have been traded in by owners who were moving up to bigger machines. We test these trade ins to make sure they are still in good shape, then we perform a full service on them and get them cleaned up before putting them out on the bench to wait until they can find a new home. If you aren't ready for a new one, come try out a used one!
