Singer Quantum XL-5000
Sewing & Embroidery Machine
The only machine with these exclusive features:
With just a touch of a button, the XL-5000 automatically threads itself, from the top spool of thread through the eye of the needle.
Place an empty bobbin in position, touch the screen for either a full, half or quarter fill and the machine does the rest, taking thread from the top spool and winds directly to the bobbin.
Enables the machine to switch between color threads during embroidery, After one color has been sewn the machine stops, snips thread, rewinds thread back onto the bobbin, threads itself with the next color even through the needle, then starts to stitch.
If the bobbin runs out during an embroidery, the machine stops, rewinds the bobbin until its full, taking thread from a separate enclosed spool, then resumes stitching where it left off.
An ingenuous stitch that creates the look of hand quilting and can be customized to various lengths, using advanced computer technology, allows you to use clear invisible thread on the top bobbin and the colored quilting thread on the bottom spool, the Singer XL-5000 / XL-6000 does the rest and magically pulls the colored quilting thread to the upper fabric side to produce a perfect quilt stitch. Quilting and other large projects are also made easier with the extra-extra high lift pressure bar, drop feed lever and increased sewing surface area.
