MenuBrother Expedition BX1E Embroidery Machine
Every journey starts with a single stitch, so choose a machine that’s been built to go the distance. The Brother BX1e has been built to be durable, flexible, innovative and an embroidery partner you can rely on for the roads ahead. Follow the thread, begin the Expedition.
Embroidery has always been a journey, from the first idea to the final finish. Skills develop; confidence grows. Let your craft take you on an expedition of discovery with the Brother Expedition BX1e embroidery machine.
Follow the thread and discover the Expedition’s embroidery capabilities. There are over 900 built-in embroidery patterns, frames and fonts that you can edit on the Expedition BX1’s large 7” colour LCD touchscreen. Expand your creative horizons with built-in 3D appliqué, crochet couching, French knot, crochet lace and in-the-hoop designs.
With the laser drop pointer and two-point positioning, precision comes as standard. The matrix copy function and appliqué creator make repeated motifs and patches quick work. Expedite your craft even further with colour sorting, auto stitch density adjustment (Stitch to Block) and programmable jump stitch cutting.
All this Brother innovation is packaged into a modern, sleek machine that’s both durable and user-friendly. Its sleek lines betray how much technology has been packaged within – advanced one-action needle threader, drop in bobbin, fully automatic upper thread tension, upper and lower thread sensors and much more.
With wireless connectivity, wherever you are you’ll never miss an update, keeping your Expedition BX1e completely current and always working hard for you. You can take your creative journey even further and connect to Brother’s mobile design app, Artspira or Brother’s embroidery digitising software programmes (additional purchase necessary).
And it’s all waiting for you to take the first stitch.
