Also written: MC350E, MC 350E, 350E, 350 E, Janome 350E, Janome MC350E

Janome's older embroidery-only machine: a 5.5 × 7.9 in (140 × 200 mm) field, two hoops in the box, 100 built-in designs and 3 monogram fonts, at up to 650 stitches per minute. It reads JEF files by USB or ATA card. It is no longer sold new.

The Janome Memory Craft 350E is a discontinued embroidery-only machine with a 8 × 5.5 in (200 × 140 mm) embroidery field. It reads .JEF files and gets designs by USB stick or Memory card, and has 100 built-in designs and 3 lettering fonts.

Memory Craft 350E hoop size and embroidery area

The Memory Craft 350E can stitch a design up to 8 × 5.5 in (200 × 140 mm) in one hooping, which is the 5.5 × 8 in size. That is the field limit: a larger hoop from another maker will not let it stitch a bigger area.

Who the Memory Craft 350E is for

Fits someone shopping used for a medium-size Janome embroidery-only machine for home décor, garments and monograms, who wants USB transfer. Skip it if you want a large field, or a machine that also sews.

Strengths

  • 5.5 × 7.9 in (140 × 200 mm) field, about 2.8 times the area of a 4 × 4 in field
  • Two hoops come with it: Hoop B at 5.5 × 7.9 in and Hoop A at 5 × 4.3 in (126 × 110 mm)
  • USB port for loading designs, plus an ATA PC card slot
  • 100 built-in designs and 2 and 3 letter monogramming
  • Automatic thread cutter and built-in needle threader

Limits

  • Only 3 built-in monogram fonts
  • Janome's spec page lists only the JEF format
  • Embroidery only: it cannot sew, and it is a single-needle machine, so each color change needs a stop and a re-thread
  • No longer sold new by Janome, and the standard hoops are the only ones in the box

Good to know: Janome names Hoop A as 125 × 110 mm in its accessory listing; the instruction book and dealers use 126 × 110 mm, which is used here. A hat hoop sold for the 350E is a flat insert, not a cap frame. Janome does not list the screen size or say which model replaced it, and new units are no longer priced by dealers.
