Sewing? Quilting? Home Dec? This is the best of the best. The finest of sewing systems, the artista 730 has every feature you can imagine to turn your ideas into projects that make you proud.

Only the artista 730 has a Microsoft® Windows® Powered operating system. So, at the touch of a finger to the big, bright centrally located color screen, you can get on-screen help and graphic tutorials. You can access the myartista portal, a website exclusively for artista 730 and 200 owners. And that's not all…
