Janome Atelier 7AE

The Janome Atelier 7AE is a computerised sewing machine. It celebrates the 10th anniversary of the Atelier series.

This model has upgraded features and a better design. This machine has 350 built-in stitches and 11 automatic buttonhole styles. It also features advanced systems like AcuFeed Flex for fabric feeding. No matter if you are making quilts, fashion items, or home decor, this special edition gives you the tools for great results.

The Atelier 7AE is both reliable and versatile. It has a large 210mm workspace to the right of the needle. It can sew at a maximum speed of 1000 stitches per minute.

The machine has useful automation features. It includes an automatic thread cutter, programmable needle positioning, and an easy-change needle plate system. Its contemporary design houses a fully computerised control system with touch screen operation.

You'll find this machine suitable for tackling everything from delicate silks to thick quilt layers. The wide extension table gives you more space for bigger projects. The built-in stitch composer and memory functions let you save your custom stitch combinations.

You can choose from three accessory kits for different sewing tasks. This lets you adjust the machine to fit your creative needs.

The Atelier 7AE offers 350 built-in stitches that cover utility, decorative, and specialist applications. You can choose from basic straight and zigzag stitches for everyday sewing, or select decorative patterns for embellishment work.

The machine includes 7 alphabets with 3 different fonts, giving you multiple options for monogramming and personalisation. These alphabet stitches let you add text to garments, home items, and quilts. The 9mm capital letters provide clear, readable lettering that stands out on your projects.

You can combine different alphabet styles to create unique text designs. The touch screen makes it simple to select and preview your chosen stitches before sewing.

The machine offers 11 customisable automatic buttonhole styles, adjusting size, stitch width, and density for various fabrics and garments.

The automatic system ensures consistent results across multiple buttonholes on the same project. This is particularly useful for shirts, jackets, and other garments that require several matching buttonholes.

The stitch composer function lets you design your own custom stitches from scratch. You can combine existing stitch elements, adjust their arrangement, and save your designs for future use.

Stitch elongation and tapering enhance decorative stitches, allowing for flexible design adjustments and smooth transitions, enabling creative experimentation beyond standard patterns.

The Atelier 7AE provides 91 needle positions that give you precise control over stitch placement. This is essential for topstitching, edge work, and detailed piecing where accuracy matters.

The sewing machine has a programmable needle position and an automatic lock stitch. It also offers maximum speed control. A touch screen makes it easy to select stitches. This design improves convenience for pivoting, securing threads, and adjusting the stitching speed.

The built-in needle threader eliminates the frustration of manually threading needles. You activate this feature with a simple lever movement, and the machine threads the needle for you automatically. This saves time and reduces eye strain, particularly when working with fine threads or in low light conditions.

The automatic thread cutter works at the touch of a button positioned above the needle area. When you finish a seam, you press the button and the machine cuts both the upper and lower threads cleanly. This keeps your hands free and maintains your workflow without reaching for scissors. The auto thread cutter also works during bobbin winding, trimming the thread tail once you've wound the bobbin.

The easy set bobbin system uses a drop-in design that sits horizontally in a clear view compartment. You simply place the bobbin in the case, pull the thread through the guide, and close the cover. The system doesn't require complex threading paths or removal of parts.

The machine includes an easy change needle plate system with two options. The standard needle plate supports different stitch types. The straight stitch needle plate has a smaller opening for better straight stitch quality. You can easily switch plates without tools.

The straight stitch plate helps stop fabric puckering on light materials. It works at speeds up to 1,000 stitches per minute.

The high resolution touchscreen displays stitch selections, settings, and sewing information clearly. You navigate menus by touching the screen directly or using the included touch panel stylus. The start/stop button lets you sew without the foot control, giving you hands-free operation when needed.

The USB port allows you to import custom stitches created with the included Stitch Composer software. You can also save stitch combinations and settings to transfer between projects. The machine has an extension table. This table gives you more work space for bigger projects, like quilts or home items.
