Laundry Basket Quilts Special Edition with 300 Stitches and SFS+ Feeding
The Janome 5300QDC Laundry Basket Quilts Special Edition is the 5300QDC dressed in Edyta Sitar’s hexagon quilt artwork, with 300 built-in stitches plus 100 alphabet characters and Janome’s Superior Plus Feed System. At 13.2 lbs with a hard cover included, it is light enough to carry to a class or a guild meeting.

300 Stitches, 100 Alphabet Characters and 7 Buttonholes
The stitch library runs to 300 built-in stitches with 100 alphabet characters for labelling quilts, and 7 one-step buttonholes. Stitch width goes to 7mm and length to 5mm, and pattern memory holds combinations of up to 100 stitches so a sequence survives between sittings.

Superior Plus Feed System
The Superior Plus Feed System (SFS+) uses a 7-piece feed dog to keep feeding even and stable across fabric weights, which is what keeps a pieced seam from drifting. Drop feed, foot pressure adjustment and an extra-high presser foot lift cover free-motion work and thick layers.

Built for Taking Places
At 15.9 x 11.8 x 6.5 inches and 13.2 lbs, with a hard cover in the box, this is a full-size machine you can actually carry. It runs on dual voltage from 80v to 240v, and the Quilting Attachment Kit, extension table and Optic Magnifier Set are all standard rather than extras.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Laundry Basket Quilts edition different from a standard 5300QDC?
The mechanism is the same 5300QDC. What changes is the Edyta Sitar hexagon quilt artwork on the body, created with Laundry Basket Quilts. You get the same 300 stitches, Superior Plus Feed System and 13.2 lb hard-cover package in a special edition finish.
How many stitches and buttonholes does it have?
There are 300 built-in stitches plus 100 alphabet characters for labelling quilts, and 7 one-step buttonholes. Maximum stitch width is 7mm and length is 5mm, and stitch pattern memory holds combinations of up to 100 stitches.
What is the Superior Plus Feed System?
SFS+ is Janome's feed system built around a 7-piece feed dog rather than a shorter standard set. More of the fabric is gripped at once, so feeding stays even across weights and a pieced seam is less likely to drift as it passes under the foot.
Is it light enough to take to a class?
That is the point of the QDC line. It weighs 13.2 lbs and measures 15.9 by 11.8 by 6.5 inches, and a hard cover is in the box rather than an extra. It also runs on dual voltage from 80v to 240v.
What comes with it for quilting?
The Quilting Attachment Kit LB and an extension table are both standard, along with the Optic Magnifier Set at 20x, 40x and 60x and a knee lifter. Drop feed and foot pressure adjustment set the machine up for free-motion work without buying anything else first.
What warranty comes with it?
Janome covers mechanical components for 25 years, electrical components for 5 years and labor for 1 year, and Quality Sewing adds a 1-Year Quality Sewing Warranty. Compare it against every quilting machine we stock.
