Set Mode
The Set Mode gives you powerful control to customize your embroidery experience. Adjust screen brightness, standby timers, buzzer sounds, or switch between inches and millimeters with ease. Personalize your workflow by enabling auto thread cutting and setting max embroidery speeds.

With features like cleaning reminders, touchscreen calibration, and language selection, Set Mode helps you fine-tune the MC100E to work exactly how you want.
Optical Bobbin Thread Monitoring
Say goodbye to the frustration of your embroidery unraveling because the bobbin ran out unnoticed. With Optical Bobbin Thread Monitoring, the Janome MC100E uses a light-based sensor to keep an eye on your bobbin supply in real time. When the thread runs low, the machine pauses stitching and gives you a heads-up—so you can swap or rewind before disaster strikes. It's a minor feature that makes a big difference, keeping your designs intact and your stress levels low.
274 Embroidery Designs, 11 Fonts, 2 & 3 Letter Monograms
With 274 built-in embroidery designs, the Janome MC100E makes it easy to bring your creative visions to life—no software or downloads needed. From florals and scrollwork to borders, frames, and whimsical motifs, you'll find designs for every style and occasion. Personalization is just as effortless, thanks to 11 embroidery fonts that allow you to add names, phrases, and sentiments with ease. For a polished, classic touch, the machine also includes both 2- and 3-letter monogramming options—perfect for customizing towels, bags, and gifts. Whether you're embellishing garments or creating keepsakes, the MC100E offers a built-in embroidery library that's ready to impress.
Needle Threader
The Janome MC100E’s built-in needle threader takes the hassle out of threading, making setup quicker and more comfortable, especially for those with tired eyes or unsteady hands. Simply lower the threader, guide your thread, and let the machine do the rest. Compatible with needle sizes #11 to #16, it works best when using thread sizes between 50 and 90 for smooth, reliable threading. To ensure proper function and avoid damage, avoid using thicker threads like size 30 or above, and note that the needle threader cannot be used with a twin needle. This thoughtful feature is just one more way the MC100E helps streamline your embroidery experience.
