If you’re keen to take your skills to the next level and create individual pieces with ease then the AMBITION™ 1.0 is ideal. Hosting a range of advanced yet easily navigated functions, this machine aims to expand your creative horizons without feeling inaccessible.

The high-resolution touch screen will enable you to optimise your work by displaying each stitch in full size and gives you options to adjust the speed, thread tension and presser foot pressure as per the project you’re working on.

The large workspace and long-arm will enable you to work with a variety of fabric and is complemented by 29 different needle positions meaning you can position the needle exactly where it needs to be.

You can also set the needle to stop up or down in the fabric automatically which is ideal for pivoting or appliqué.
