Product Details
Check out the Janome Continental M8 Professional. It is the the natural successor to the outstanding CM7P. Designed for durability, performance, and creative freedom, this machine is built for sewists who demand the best.
The M8 has sturdy powder coated metal frame. It features a flatbed that is durable and easy to use.
The sewing space is remarkably large, offering 343mm (13.5") of room to the right side of the needle. The height is 140mm (5.51"). This gives you plenty of room for large quilts, home décor, and detailed garments.
The Continental M8 offers great needle penetration and piercing power. This makes it one of the best home sewing machines available. Whether you're working with delicate silks or heavy denim, expect consistent, high-quality results every time.

450 Built-in Stitches to choose from
The Janome CM8P has 450 built-in stitches. This includes 5 alphabets, stitch tapering, and Janome’s special Miracle Stitch.
It also has 13 styles of automatic one-step buttonholes. This makes it easy to create perfect buttonholes on different types of fabric. Just insert your button into the foot, and the machine does the rest with precision.
This machine offers many choices for decorative sewing, making clothes, and detailed quilting. Whether you’re working on fine embellishments or larger projects, this machine ensures professional-quality results every time.

A.S.R. system
The A.S.R.™ (Accurate Stitch Regulator) maintains smooth, consistent stitch lengths during free-motion quilting, regardless of sewing speed—helping you achieve professional-grade results with ease.
The system also includes a Ruler Work Foot, enabling precise, ruler-guided quilting designs. Whether you are new to quilting or have experience, the A.S.R.™ helps improve your skills. It enhances accuracy, consistency, and control in free-motion and ruler quilting.

Detachable AcuFeed system
The AcuFeed™ Flex system offers great fabric control. It feeds layers from both the top and bottom. This ensures smooth and even handling of tough materials like knits, silks, and vinyl.
Unlike traditional walking feet, this system is fully detachable, allowing you to use it only when needed. Perfect for quilting, accurate seam alignment, and preventing fabric shifting on long or bulky seams.
Whether you’re working with lightweight or heavy fabrics, AcuFeed™ Flex delivers professional, precisely aligned results with ease.

Auto One-Touch Needle Plate Conversion
This easy-to-use system lets you switch between zigzag, straight stitch, and professional HP needle plates with just one touch—no tools needed. Changing plates quickly improves stitching accuracy. It also lets you adjust your setup for different techniques.
This feature works well with delicate fabrics, thick materials, and complex quilting designs. It helps you achieve smooth and precise stitching every time.
