Furthermore, they might allow you to have multi-directional or multi-motion stitching, which means that the machine in fact sews not only forwards but also sideways and backward to help sew wide, elaborate designs.<\/p>\n<h2>Embroidery:<\/h2>\n<p>With a decent machine you will be able to load hundreds of motifs or more, look at them in 3D, and modify colors, sizing, and stitches with just a touch. Your designs can be nicely stored in collections (we all love organizing our filing systems!), you can see how long it will take the machine to embroider a design, you can see how many stitches you\u2019ve sewn and how many must still be done. The embroidery function is opening up a whole new vista of choice, personalization, fun, detail, and creativity in your sewing that just wasn\u2019t possible before!<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-30307 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-500x334.jpg\" alt=\"computerized sewing machine\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741.jpg 1000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 500\/334;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-30307\" src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-500x334.jpg\" alt=\"computerized sewing machine\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/shutterstock_159908741.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript>Sensors:<\/h2>\n<p>Sensors are invaluable\u2026to say the least. \u00a0How many times might you faff around for a half-hour quite unaware that you\u2019re busy doing something that\u2019s quite detrimental to your project or your machine? If you are running out of bobbin thread or top thread, a computerized sewing machine will send you an alert message visually on the touchscreen and\/or an audible message to help remind you to remedy the condition right before you run out, seriously handy.<\/p>\n<p>The machine might also alert you in case you have an incompatibility between the presser foot and the stitch you've chosen. For instance, you can't use a straight stitch foot with a zigzag stitch or you'll crack the needle. \u00a0Also, it might inform you when the embroidery design you've picked isn't going to fit in the hoop you've got installed on the machine.<\/p>\n<h2>Mirror Imaging:<\/h2>\n<p>What an awesome feature\u2026mirror imaging left\/right and up\/down means that you needn\u2019t worry about a design or stitch which is the wrong way around, the machine will sort this all out for you with the mirror imaging function. This is useful when creating large design pieces and repeating motifs.<\/p>\n<h2>Stitch regulator:<\/h2>\n<p>For quilters, this is a super handy feature. \u00a0High-end machines offer a computer-operated stitch regulator so that all of your stitches will likely be a similar size, even as you move the material around the machine bed and regardless of the speed or direction. No tiny and huge stitches mixed up within the same quilting style.<\/p>\n<h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-29377 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-500x334.jpg\" alt=\"img_4227-copy\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy.jpg 1000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 500\/334;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-29377\" src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-500x334.jpg\" alt=\"img_4227-copy\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4227-copy.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript>Needle positioning\/Needle stop:<\/h2>\n<p>A computerized sewing machine will likely enable you to adjust the needle position from the middle to the left or the right, typically in very tiny increments. This enables ever-so-slight changes in seam allowance width or topstitching areas. \u00a0The computer also enables you to set whether or not the needle stops up or down (or neither) whenever you stop stitching. This attribute is handy for pivoting at corners, modifying the fabric spot, or chain piecing.<\/p>\n<h2>Tension:<\/h2>\n<p>The majority of computerized sewing machines possess automatic tension adjustment, based on the kind of fabric along with the thickness.

You can even download embroidery models in the proper format to enable the machine to read it. Some sewing machines have their personal mouse, just like the PC, \u00a0so that you can navigate the screen. It's recommended that you keep your machine close to your computer or Internet access to take advantage of\u00a0these features.<\/p>\n<h2>Display Screen or Monitor:<\/h2>\n<p>Think of the display screen like your PC monitor. \u00a0The screen should have a look you're comfortable with and be bright enough to see clearly in daylight. \u00a0Don't worry, you'll get used to the smaller size. On quite a few models, you can also adjust the image dimensions for better viewing, as well as the display brightness and contrast. Numerous things are shown on the LCD display screen, which range from full-size decorative and utility stitches to vibrant embroidery motifs and precise stitch adjustments.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-29378 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-500x334.jpg\" alt=\"img_4226-copy\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy.jpg 1000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 500\/334;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-29378\" src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-500x334.jpg\" alt=\"img_4226-copy\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-500x334.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/IMG_4226-copy.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>The monitor might function as a touch-enabled screen which will let you make changes to the settings using your fingertips or with a stylus. On interactive displays, you will often move stitches around to various other areas by dragging them across the screen and letting go&#8230; i.e.: drag and drop. There could be several menus available on your touchscreen display, so that you can find the stitch function you would like, i.e. appliqu\u00e9 or scallop, after that look for the perfect stitch.<\/p>\n<p>You may be able to access the entire manual of the sewing machine via the embedded touch screen. \u00a0This\u00a0makes it easy to look into settings you are not sure of, or to answer function and feature queries. \u00a0Several displays even provide a display screen saver.<\/p>\n<p>Several machines incorporate a clock so that you can monitor the number of hours you have been sewing, or just how long a specific task takes to complete.<\/p>\n<h2>Memory space:<\/h2>\n<p>The computer memory enables you to save your personal stitches for easy recall, it also allows you to save customized stitches.
