Stitches and Needle Positions

Choose from 120 different stitches and 7 buttonholes. The Skyline S3 offers 71 unique needle positions in order to get pinpoint accuracy for decorative stitching, appliqué and free motion quilting. There is also an array of standard feet and accessories including Automatic Buttonhole foot, and dust cover.

Convenience Features

Right by the needle, you’ll find a start/stop button for sewing without the foot control and a reverse button. There is also a locking stitch button and needle up/down button. The start/stop button allows the machine to sew without using the foot pedal. This feature is great for sewing long seams or for quick mending. The reverse button allows you to easily backstitch for locking seams. With the tip of your finger, this conveniently located button can also be used to stop a stitch pattern before its completion. The locking stitch button ties off the end of the thread. No need to backstitch to lock a seam. This is ideal for securing seams on delicate fabrics or when using decorative stitches. Thread the machine up to the needle and then let the built-in needle threader take over to get the thread through the eye of the needle. The Backlit LCD screen makes it much easier to see what you're creating.

Superior Feed System Plus

Even consistent fabric feeding courtesy of the Superior Feed System Plus, featuring a 7-Piece feed dog to ensure that even the thickets, multi-layer projects are able to move under the needle with precision and ease. The One Step Plate Converter allows you to switch from the zigzag to straight stitch plate (optional) at the touch of a button – no screwdrivers required!

A real work horse

This is my second Janome Skyline S3. I purchased the first locally from a sewing machine store 8 years ago and have used it almost nonstop making quilts, bags, etc. When my first Skyline wouldn't turn on this summer, I took it to the local repair shop and it was the power supply that needed replaced. The part was on backorder indefinitely. So I looked on Amazon to see if they had a Janome Skyline S3 just like my old one, and they did! I was so excited to get another one because I just love this model. I did finally get my old one back from the shop, so now I have two. Not a problem, I can let my granddaughter use it since she is becoming a quilter also.

Great sewing Machine!

I use this machine for bag making and it is very nice in comparison with my old machine for sure. This has a great motor, very quiet and sews over pretty thick fabrics which my old machine did not. There have been a couple of times it didn’t sew over something very thick, but goes over most thickness, annd with an “hump jumper” it helps on certain things. I have made a lot of bags with this machine and hope it lasts a long time!

Love it so far.

I’ve had this for just a little bit and I already love it. Compared to my old Singer and the Juki I returned, this is like a Cadillac. I’ll update if anything changes but I’ve seen squares and a strip, wound a bobbin, etc. Everything was intuitive and went from setting up to using very quickly

The Janome Skyline S3 is a great sewing machine!

I've really enjoyed this sewing machine. I've had it since 2017 and it's always been very reliable. I can't believe it's been so long because it runs just like the day I bought it.It's important to use good, quality thread or your machine can end up the repair shop!
