The Janome 644D (My Lock 644D) has been the top of the line overlocker in the Janome range for the past 6 years. The reasons why this overlocker has earned this title are, the strength (with the ability to overlock over 4 layers of denim), it’s ease of use (with ease lower looper threading) and it’s ability to do 2 thread flatlocking in addition to the standard 4 and 3 thread overlocking (and rolled hem) stitches.
Not only is the Janome 644D the top of the range but it is by far the easiest Janome overlocker to thread. Because most modern overlockers have at least three threads they are NOTORIOUS for threading however the Janome 644D’s design has made it easier then ever. Not only is there a color coded diagram but the Janome 644D utilises drop in tension dials as opposed to the click in dials on the Janome 8004D for example. These simple additions mean you’ll be sewing up a storm in no time!

An overlocker, like the Janome 644D, is the perfect companion for anyone wanting to create, mend or alter their garments and the like. The overlocker will trim the seam allowance, sew the seam, and enclose the edges of the fabrics in a thread casing, all in one step, thereby finishing the hem. By doing everything in one step, professional seamstresses can sometimes halve the time spent in production!
The Janome 644D can also be used on the down hem of ‘after-five’ gowns, where the hem is left as a feature through the use of a rolled hem. They also work well for making finished narrow hems, blind stitched hems, and overcast seams. Overlockers are very efficient for sewing stretch fabrics and working with bias cut garments. You can also attach elastic to your work, allowing for the creation of swimwear and lingerie.
When it comes to producing a garment from start to finish, an overlocker can alone can be used, provided the garment does not have any buttonholes or enclosed zips. Making the Janome 644D the ideal machine to buy with your sewing machine!
