The new combined sewing and embroidery Designer Sapphire 85 from Husqvarna is a tremendous state-of-art model, offering all the top features in a package, which is ready to start stitching straight out from its box.

Included with the Designer Sapphire 85 is the embroidery unit and 3 hoops, 12x12mm, 26x20mm and the Royal hoop 36x20mm in size. The Designer Sapphire 85 is large with 10” space to the right of the needle. A 8” full colour touch screen. Learn more with the Sapphire 85 brochure.

Unlike many sewing machines where the top thread is loaded, right on the top of the machine on this Husqvarna it is loaded from the front. Lift the lid to view the top threading paths; there is no need to stand while changing the top thread on the Sapphire 85.

We love the automatic fabric thickness sensor, which gives a perfect stitch no matter what you are sewing. It continuously monitors and adjusts the thread tension settings as you stitch, so no matter which stitch or fabric type being sewn, this Designer Sapphire 85 will give perfect stitches. The sensor system also helps when embroidering with metallic or speciality threads.

If you need more help JoyOS Advisor is just a touch away on the 8” colour touch screen. JoyOS Advisor offers Interactive tutorials about sewing techniques, for example, how to insert invisible zips or sew collar hems. It also offers advice about stabilizers to use for your project.

If you are looking for a fabulous stitch selection, the Designer Sapphire 85 offers 680 stitches, including sideways sewn stitches up to 54 mm wide. If you have never seen the Pop-up stitches this machine can sew, you are in for a wonderful time learning what this top-end embroidery machine can do.
