When it comes to selecting a new machine, you want to make sure it has all of the features you want and need, and maybe even some extra features you didn’t know you wanted. The Husqvarna Viking Epic 980Q has all of this and more with the JoyOS Advisor, Exclusive Stitch techniques and even interactive video tutorials.

Machine Highlights

The Husqvarna Viking Epic 980Q is one of the most advanced machines on the market with exclusive stitch techniques, interactive tutorials, and an exclusive sensor system. The Epic 980Q has one of the largest display screens of any machine with captive touch, measuring in at 10.1”, and also has some of the brightest LED lighting and largest workspace areas, making it great for both piecing and quilting a quilt. The JoyOS advisor feature of this machine will help make sure you achieve accurate, even and professional looking stitches every time by setting the best stitch width and length, and automatically setting the best thread tension and presser foot pressure for the desired stitch technique. If you are trying out a stitch technique you’ve never done before, or even just looking for more quilting tips and techniques the JoyOS advisor can show you animations and illustrations that can walk you through each step of the sewing or quilting process. While information and instructions for most new stitches and techniques can be found on the machine itself, there is still an instruction manual that can help with any remaining details, like cleaning and maintaining your machine. If you are someone who likes to combine different fabric weights and textures into one project, the exclusive sensor system on the Epic 980Q will help ensure even feeding and stitches as you sew by automatically and continuously sensing and adjusting to any thickness of fabric.

    Will this Husqvarna Viking Epic 980Q be available in Australia? It appears to have all the functions I have been looking for. Many thanks.
