In general, machines that are classed as “Competent” have lots of great basic features, as well as a few more advanced features for competent sewers who want to experiment with more specialised effects.

What size is the Janome 7330 Magnolia?

We class the Janome 7330 as a full-size machine. Standard or full-size machines are the most versatile machine size as they work for a range of sewing applications. Full-size machines are usually wider than compact machines and this gives you slightly more space to manoeuvre the fabric around the needle area.

Basic sewing features on the Janome 7330 Magnolia?

The Janome 7330 has basic features such as a free arm with removable cover, standard foot pedal, start / stop button and an inbuilt light for safe and easy sewing. Reverse stitches, used for securing the thread in the fabric at the beginning and end of a stitching line, are created with a reverse button.

Threading and setting up the bobbin for the Janome 7330 Magnolia?

When setting up and threading the sewing machine, the Janome 7330 has a drop-in bobbin for quick rethreading of your machine. There are also thread guides on this model and the needle threading is automatic / assisted. Threading guides such as small arrows or numbers marked on the machine make it easier to see how to thread the upper thread, which is especially helpful for beginners. Sewers who struggle to see how to thread the needle may also benefit from the automatic needle threader on this model, which is a small inbuilt device that swings around and helps you to hook the thread through the eye of the needle.

What presser feet are compatible with the Janome 7330 Magnolia?

We believe the Janome 7330 is compatible with presser feet that are press on / low shank. If you already have presser feet that are compatible with this type of shank from a previous sewing machine, then in many cases you will be able to use the same presser feet on this model as well.

To be sure that presser feet can be used on different machines, or when buying new presser feet and other parts and accessories, you should always check that the parts are compatible with your specific machine number. So for this machine you will need parts and accessories compatible with make and model Janome 7330.

What are the basic stitch types for the Janome 7330 Magnolia?

Stitch types on the Janome 7330 include: Straight Stitch, Buttonhole, Decorative, Zigzag. The buttonhole process is a 1 Step Buttonhole. 1 step buttonholes are automated and easy to use for beginners.

Can I adjust the stitch width and length on the Janome 7330 Magnolia?

On the Janome 7330, the maximum stitch length is 5mm, and the maximum stitch width is 7mm. The stitch length on this model is adjusted with an adjustable / manual control. When a machine has adjustable stitch length you can manually adjust the length of the stitches to create different effects and alter the appearance of the inbuilt stitches. The stitch width on this machine is adjusted with an adjustable / manual control. Adjustable stitch width allows you to manually widen your stitches, which can be particularly helpful for customising zigzag stitches.

What fabrics can I sew with the Janome 7330 Magnolia?

The Janome 7330 is listed as being suitable for a range of different fabric weights, from silk to denim. On many machines, these results will only be achieved with the correct needle and thread combination, so specialty needles and threads may need to be purchased separately and may not be supplied with your machine. You should consult the manual for your machine to ensure that the machine is set up correctly when sewing different fabrics, and always sew test samples to get the best possible stitch quality and to achieve perfectly balanced tension.

Can I adjust the thread tension and the presser foot pressure on the Janome 7330 Magnolia?

To help you achieve the best possible stitch quality across different fabrics the Janome 7330 adjusts the tension of the upper thread using an adjustable / manual control. Adjustable upper thread tension gives you complete control over the tension of the upper thread and this tension can be manually adjusted to balance the tension of your stitches. This model appears to have no special features for presser foot adjustment, so if this feature is important to you, you may like to consider machines with manual / adjustable presser foot pressure.

Does the Janome 7330 Magnolia have any automated features?

This model also has some automated features to help you speed up your sewing time. The Janome 7330 has an automated control to specify if the needle stops up or down, and uses the locking stitch control in place of an automated back tack for automatically back tacking to quickly secure the thread in the fabric. There is no control for automatically trimming your threads to quickly neaten your sewing. To help you neaten fancier stitches without a messy back tack, automated locking stitches are created one on top of the other to neaten off decorative stitches.

What is the voltage of the Janome 7330 Magnolia?

With a voltage of 110v we believe this machine is suitable to use in the USA, but it is always best to consult the information provided by the manufacturer (Janome) or consult a sewing machine distributor prior to purchase to ensure that the machine will work in your region if you are unsure. Most manufacturers do not recommend using adaptors to convert the voltage of your machine for safety reasons.
