18" Work Space
As a true long arm machine, the Jewel's larger workspace allows you to stitch freely without worrying about limitations.


Back and Front Handles
Effortlessly control the motion of the Jewel from the side of the machine that you prefer with the comfort gripped handles.


LCD Display
Set and easily read Stitch Control Features with the LCD display on both sides of the machine. If desired, set a preferred needle speed for the Manual Stitch Mode.


Built-In Stitch Regulator
The Jewel includes a built-in stitch regulator that controls the speed of your stitch with any selected stitch length.


Right and Left Handle Controls
Options are right at your fingertips with push button controls. Change the stitching speed, start and stop the Jewel, or place the needle up or down with buttons directly built into the handles.


Large "M" Class Bobbin
