Specialty Embroidery Projects
Expand your creative possibilities with a collection of unique embroidery techniques and project designs built directly into the machine. Explore decorative French Knot embroidery, Knit Couching designs, Crochet-inspired embroidery, 3D Appliqué projects and creative In-the-Hoop designs.


Yarn Couching
Take your embroidery beyond traditional stitching with Yarn Couching. The included Embroidery Couching Foot "Y" lets you secure yarn directly onto your projects, creating textured embellishments, eye-catching lettering and decorative accents. It also supports creative crochet couching techniques when used with water-soluble stabiliser.
Matrix Copy
Boost productivity by duplicating a design across the embroidery field with Matrix Copy. Perfect for badges, quilt blocks, labels and other repeated motifs, it helps maximise hoop space while keeping every design evenly aligned.


2-Point Positioning with LED Pointer
Position embroidery designs with greater accuracy using Brother's 2-Point Positioning system. The built-in LED pointer allows you to define two reference points on your fabric, making it easy to align designs, borders and monograms precisely—even when the hoop isn't perfectly square.
Jump Stitch Trimming
Spend less time trimming threads after embroidery. Automatic Jump Stitch Trimming cuts connecting threads as your design stitches, producing cleaner results and reducing the amount of finishing required once the embroidery is complete.


Stitch to Block
Maintain the appearance of your embroidery when resizing designs with Stitch to Block. The machine automatically adjusts the stitch count to suit the new size, helping preserve stitch density and coverage whether you're enlarging or reducing a design.
My Stitch Monitor App
Keep track of embroidery progress remotely using Brother's embroidery monitoring app. Whether you're preparing your next project or working elsewhere in your craft room, you can easily check on your machine's progress.


Wireless Design Transfer
Send embroidery designs directly to your machine using your wireless network. Eliminate the need for USB drives and enjoy a more streamlined embroidery workflow.
Artspira Compatibility
Connect with the Artspira app to access creative inspiration, editing tools and project ideas. Transfer compatible designs wirelessly and discover new ways to personalise your embroidery projects.


Hemingworth Thread Compatibility
Built-in support for Hemingworth embroidery thread colours makes thread selection and colour matching easier than ever. Plan embroidery projects with confidence using familiar thread references.
USB Connectivity
Import embroidery files and perform machine updates using the built-in USB port. This provides additional flexibility when managing embroidery designs from multiple sources.

Design Editing Functions
Resize, rotate, combine and customise embroidery designs without leaving the machine.
Powerful built-in editing tools help you personalise projects quickly and efficiently.
Designed for Everyday Convenience

7" LCD Touchscreen Display
The large colour touchscreen provides intuitive access to embroidery designs, editing tools and machine settings. Clear graphics and easy navigation make project setup simple and enjoyable.
One Finger Needle Threader
Thread the needle quickly and easily using Brother's convenient One Finger Needle Threader. This practical feature helps reduce setup time and improves everyday usability.


Bright LED Lighting
Bright LED lighting illuminates the embroidery area for improved visibility. Better lighting helps when working with darker fabrics, detailed embroidery and fine thread colours.
Independent Bobbin Winding System
Wind bobbins without interrupting your embroidery. The dedicated bobbin winding system features a separate spool pin and integrated thread cutter, allowing you to prepare the next bobbin while your machine remains threaded.
Drop-In Bobbin
The top-loading drop-in bobbin system makes changing bobbins quick and simple. Just insert the bobbin, follow the guide and continue embroidering.
