Tested: Janome CoverPro 3000 professional

28/4/2021

 
Picture
Janome has launched a new Cover lock machine; the 3000 professional. The coverstitch machine does indeed look very professional and is an absolute asset if you often sew clothes made of jersey, tricot, jogging fabric or other stretch fabrics. The machine creates very nice cover stitches that give the garment a professional look to lick your fingers.

We have  tested the coverstitch machine or coverlocker for you and are happy to share our review in this blog.
