It's So Easy And So Much Fun
The FM725 is the first machine from Janome that allows you to do needle punch felting.
It doesn't require thread, a bobbin, or any previous sewing experience. You can achieve amazing, one-of-a-kind fabric effects on your first try.
And the FM725 is so easy to operate, even a child can use it right away.
Instead of one needle, the FM725 has five needles joined into a single unit, so they move up and down in unison. On the sides of each needle are tiny barbs. As the needles pierce the top layer of material, these barbs catch the individual fibers and push them down into the bottom layer.
Five round holes in the needle plate correspond to the five needle points. These holes are slightly larger than those found on other felting machines, allowing penetration through even multiple layers to occur easily, quickly and cleanly, allowing for a better blending of fibers.
The fibers mingle to create new color and texture combinations that simply cannot be achieved with embroidery, appliqué, or any other kind of needlework. In needle felting there is no "right side" or "wrong side." Whether you push the fibers through from the front or back depends on the effect you're trying to achieve. Experimentation is part of the fun.
The machine is extremely easy to use and opens up a world of new possibilities for beginning and advanced sewing and craft enthusiasts alike.
