Silver Viscount 1045 sewing machine
Computerised with LCD screen
Delivery: 1 Working Day(s) (Sat, Sun options)
WOW!! A total of 110 stitch patterns are available including buttonhole and eyelet stitches. The lightweight Silver Viscount 1045 is computerised featuring an LCD information screen, making stitch selection easy. The screen also includes detailed information about selected stitch widths and lengths and which clip on feet you should be using, as well as other prompts.
Advanced time-saving features make it faster and easier than ever to create beautiful projects for every area of your life. An easy to follow threading diagram and a pattern selection list are displayed on two handy pull-out reference plates. This Silver 1045 uses the jam-proof, magnetic, top-loading, full rotary hook system eliminating the need for a removable bobbin case.
A softcover is included; however what the pictures and images don't show is how smooth the machine is when it's running at speed. The hook system is the high quality rotary type, made for a lightweight machine thats quiet when in use. The extra wide feed is another plus...the fabric feed has two extra teeth in front of the needle which helps pull the fabric through when starting to stitch from the edge when making patchwork or whilst quilting.
With 12 quilt stitches, up to 7 mm wide, 8 cross stitches, eyelets, 7 styles of buttonhole and darning free-motion embroidery functions and a load of lovely decorative stitches, make the Silver Viscount 1045 sewing machine unique...its sure to be a best seller.

'Patterns' selection can be used to choose a more complex stitch type, for example a scallop, quilting or cross-stitch pattern.
