Question: is janome a low shank machine?
Answer: Above is a standard low shank Janome machine on the left and my beloved Janome ruler foot combination on a high shank machine on the right. Those are the easy machines. ... These are the straight stitch only machines like the Janome 1600P and its clones: Brother 1500, Husqvarna Megga Quilter, Juki 2010, etc.
