Janome Atelier 6AE

You want a sewing machine that feels solid, works fast, and handles more than basic jobs. The Janome Atelier 6AE targets dressmaking, quilting, and home projects where space, control, and stitch choice matter.

The Atelier 6 Anniversary Edition marks a milestone in the Janome Atelier range. You get 196 built-in stitches, including 10 one-step automatic buttonholes and one lettering font with multiple alphabets. This gives you practical stitches for daily sewing and decorative options for custom work.

It has a large workspace and a strong fabric feed. It also offers nearly 200 built-in stitches for both everyday and advanced sewing. It sews up to 1,000 stitches per minute and keeps fabric steady, even with thick or layered materials.

You get modern controls, clear stitch selection, and time-saving features like automatic thread cutting and needle threading. The machine suits practical sewing needs while giving you room to grow into more detailed and creative work.

You can add names, labels, and short messages using the built-in lettering options. The machine includes upper- and lower-case letters, numbers, and punctuation in a single font with four alphabet styles.

Letter size adjusts from 6 mm up to 9 mm, which gives clear results on home décor and garments. You can combine letters into words and short lines using alphabet combinations stored in memory.

The lettering set lacks Cyrillic letters, but features programmable needle settings and twin needle capability for precise stitching.

You get 10 one-step automatic buttonholes, sized to match your button for consistent results. Styles cover shirts, jackets, stretch fabrics, jeans, and decorative needs.

Utility stitches are useful for many sewing tasks. They let you adjust the length and width. They also support twin needle stitching. This helps with better coverage and fewer skipped stitches.

The Atelier 6AE lets you build and save custom stitch sequences. You can combine utility stitches, decorative stitches, and letters into a single pattern.

Memory storage allows you to repeat names, labels, or borders without re-entering settings. This saves time on batch projects and keeps results consistent.

You can apply stitch elongation to decorative patterns, stretching them up to five times without changing stitch density. This works well for borders and long seams.

Additional options include mirror image, auto lock-stitch, and thread cut commands within saved sequences. These controls help you manage starts, stops, and direction with precision.

You can choose from 196 built-in stitches, covering utility, stretch, decorative, and alphabet options. This range suits garment sewing, quilting, and home projects without needing extra tools. A printed stitch chart on the machine helps you find patterns fast.

The machine includes 10 automatic one-step buttonholes. Each style forms clean and even buttonholes with minimal setup. You place the button, select the style, and sew in one step.

The machine offers precise stitch adjustments, decorative options, and 91 needle positions for accurate stitching.

Several automatic features reduce setup time and errors. The auto needle threader guides the thread through the eye of the needle with a lever. This saves time and helps if you struggle with small needles.

The automatic thread cutter trims threads. Features like the lock stitch, start/stop button, speed control, and machine lock make sewing easier and more precise.

The machine features a user-friendly LCD screen for easy stitch selection, with direct buttons for popular functions. Solid controls enable quick responses, supporting efficient operation at speeds up to 1,000 stitches per minute.

The Atelier 6AE sewing machine has 6 LED lights. These lights improve visibility and reduce shadows. This helps you see better, especially for fine seams and decorative work.
