Here’s my Janome quilting machine review. 

Late to the party, but still in June! So, Happy National Sewing Machine Day! šŸŽ‰

Today, I’m sharing a long-overdue love letter (and honest review) to my sewing room workhorse—the Janome Horizon Memory Craft 8200QC, which I’ve owned since 2013. 11 Years In and Still Going Strong. If you’re a quilter thinking about upgrading your sewing machine, especially for free-motion quilting or working on large quilts, this post is for you.


✨ Why I Upgraded to the Janome Horizon

Before getting the Janome Horizon Memory Craft 8200QC, I was quilting on a much smaller domestic machine, also a Janome, Janome DC4020 – which you can see in my earlier posts and in the photo below. And while I could finish a quilt on it (and did, many times), it was never easy. Wrestling a large quilt through a small throat space can be exhausting—and honestly frustrating.

But I loved it too. We work with what we can afford and have right?
