Janome DC4030 Sewing Machine Stitches
While comparing the Janome DC4030 sewing machine stitches to those of the Janome DC2012, I found the graphic showing the number and type for the DC4030 and thought it might be handy to have for future reference. Questions about stitches on a machine come up fairly often.
The DC4030 has a total of 24 built in stitches. Six of them are buttonholes, eight are satin stitches, 1 mending stitch, and 9 utility stitches. Because of the number of buttonhole stitches, this machine would be well suited towards those who really need a good machine for making clothes.
This will also help answer a comment I had from someone asking about these two machines in particular.
I haven’t done a full review on either but will add them to my list so you’re likely to come across this picture again.

Hello Erin,
I have wanted to buy a new sewing machine for quite some time now and have been researching the Janome machines. I did not want to spend too much money but enough to get a great machine that will last some time. I am interested in sewing anything that tickles my fancy from doll clothes to clothes for my 5 year old to drapes to baby blankets, possibly quilts, etc. I would like to sew different fabrics like cotton, canvas and possibly vinyl. I was looking at the DC4030 but hesitated a bit due to the price and when I went to a local dealer to check it out he completely disregarded it and showed me the Pfaff Essential which is even more than the Janome. I have been reading your reviews on the 2010, 1050, 3050, 2012 and am now more confused than ever!
Which would be the best for the money? The 3050 does not have the adjustable presser foot, correct? How important is that?
still confused
