The Husqvarna Epic 980Q Sewing Machine
The Husqvarna Epic 980Q is a splendid combination of large sewing area and durable presence. It boasts the most generous working area available, optimized with a sewing head designed for visibility, so you can survey the area with great clarity. This spacious platform is complemented by the lightweight one-piece aluminum casting, which means the Husqvarna Epic 980Q is the lightest machine in its class with the largest operating space.
The Husqvarna Epic 980Q incorporates a revolutionary new lighting system, developed by optronic experts. The working area involves a number of powerful LEDs mounted on the light module, for a uniquely bright sewing experience that virtually eliminates shadows and blind spots. This illumination, combined with the light guide optics, ensures that exceptional light is cast throughout the entirety of the workspace, enabling fabric and stitches to be observed in true color. With this kind of clarity, anything that you can envision is yours to share.
