14 Built-in Stitches
Choose from a wide variety of stitches for basic sewing, decorative sewing, and more. This versatility allows you to tackle any project, from simple repairs to intricate designs, with ease and precision. Whether you're hemming, embellishing, or creating something entirely new, the extensive stitch options ensure you have the perfect stitch for every task.
Color-Coded Threading System
The threading path for each thread is color-coded to simplify the threading process, making it quick and easy to follow. Additionally, handy reference diagrams are included right on the machine, providing clear visual guidance for effortless setup and operation.
1300 Stitches per Minute
With a maximum stitch speed of 1300 stitches per minute, the 14T968DC allows you to complete more projects quickly while achieving professional-looking seams.
Adjustable Stitch Length | Adjustable Seam Width
For most sewing conditions, the stitch length dial should be set to the "N" setting. Adjust the stitch length to between "N" and "4" for heavyweight fabrics. For lightweight fabrics, set the stitch length between "2" and "N" to achieve excellent seams without puckering.
The overedge seam width can be adjusted by repositioning the needle and using the width adjustment knob.
Differential Feed
This feature controls the ratio of movement between the front and back sections of the feed teeth, allowing you to achieve perfectly smooth seams. Use it to eliminate distortion in seams on stretchy fabrics or remove puckers from seams in lightweight or silky fabrics. The differential feed ratio of 1:0.6 - 1:2 ensures a professional finish on all your sewing projects, regardless of the fabric type.
Snap on Presser Feet
No need to hunt for a screwdriver when changing presser feet! The Singer Professional™ 5 14T968DC features a snap-on presser foot shank. Just press the button on the back of the presser foot shank, and your current foot detaches instantly. The new presser foot snaps back onto the shank effortlessly, allowing you to continue serging without interruption!
Presser Foot Pressure Adjusting Dial
The presser foot pressure of this machine is pre-adjusted at the factory to suit medium-weight fabrics. Generally, most materials do not require any adjustment. However, adjustments may be necessary for specific instances, such as sewing lightweight or heavyweight fabrics. Set the dial to "N" for normal pressure, "1" for the lightest pressure, and "5" for the heaviest pressure. Decrease the pressure for lightweight fabrics and increase it for heavyweight fabrics.
Self-Adjusting Tension System
Select your stitch, and the machine will automatically adjust the tensions for you, saving time and ensuring optimal results for your selected stitch. This convenient feature streamlines your sewing process and enhances precision.
2/3/4/5 Thread Capability

Removable Waste Tray
A useful waste tray can be attached to the serger to keep your sewing area clean by catching cuts from fabrics and thread trimmings while you continue serging.
Extra High Presser Foot Lifter
The presser foot lifter raises (4.5mm) and lowers the presser foot higher than the standard position, making it easy to remove presser feet and accommodate thicker materials or heavy fabrics like denim or quilt layers.
