Description
The KS-500 is a portable desktop blindstitch sewing machine that is perfect for sewing skirts, pants, shirt sleeves, shirt cuffs, and much more. Blindstitches are great because they won’t be seen on the outside of the garment, which gives your finished products a professional and clean look. One of the best features of the KS-500 is its portability. This easy-to-use machine has a built-in motor and doesn’t require a separate table to be set up, so you can move it anywhere you want, whether it's a different room in your home or to craft fairs and other events. When it comes to sewing, this machine has an adjustable stitch length that goes up to 7 mm, which allows you to switch between shorter and stronger seams to longer and looser seams, depending on the project and material. And with speeds of 1,200 stitches per minute, this fast domestic blindstitch sewing machine will have you hemming garments quicker than before.

Create Beautiful Blindstitches
Blindstitches live up to their name, as they can’t be seen on the outer side of garments. That makes these invisible stitches perfect for sewing areas where you don’t want to see stitches, like the hems of pants, drapery, and other fabrics.
A Portable Machine
The KS-500 is a lightweight domestic sewing machine that can be taken wherever you need it. Unlike industrial sewing machines that require a motor and table to be set up, this small machine has a built-in motor and can be placed on any flat surface, whether it’s on a desk at your home or on a table at a craft show.
Adjustable Stitch Length
With the KS-500, you can adjust your stitch length between 1 and 7 mm. Being able to adjust your blindstitch length means you can switch between shorter and stronger seams to longer and looser seams, depending on what material and item you are sewing. Although you may want looser seams when hemming pants so you can adjust the length, when sewing coats, you’ll want stronger, shorter seams to hold together the thicker coat material.
With the KS-500, You Can Sew...
Cuffs
If the cuffs on dress shirts, jackets, pants, and other garments are too long, you can easily shorten them with the KS-500. The adjustable stitch length helps you to hem cuffs on various types of garments, and the invisible nature of blindstitches means no one will see where the cuffs were hemmed.
Drapery
If you want a custom finished look for your curtains and drapes, this machine can do just that. With the KS-500, you can shorten curtains to the exact height of the windows of your friends, family, and customers.
Dresses
With this machine, you can make a unique custom dress for a wedding, prom, or other formal events. You won’t see the blindstitches anywhere on the garment, and they are very durable, so your dresses will be of a high-quality everyone will love.
Quilts
Blindstitches are often used for binding quilts, making the KS-500 perfect for creating personalized quilts. You can also use blindstitches to attach appliqué pieces to the quilt, resulting in a seamless looking quilt design.
