Brother Innov-ís BX1 Expedition Sewing & Embroidery Machine

Want one machine that can handle sewing, quilting, and embroidery? The Brother BX1 Expedition combines powerful sewing features with an expansive embroidery workspace to give creators an incredibly versatile machine.

The BX1 includes 754 built-in sewing stitches along with 774 built-in embroidery designs, giving you a huge library of creative options right out of the box. Its 8" x 14" embroidery area provides room for larger embroidery projects, while the spacious 10" throat space gives you additional room when sewing and quilting larger projects.

Industry-First Curve Sewing

One of the standout features of the Brother BX1 is its industry-first Curve Sewing feature. When the needle is down, the machine allows you to gently guide and rotate your fabric with less pressure. When the needle rises, normal pressure resumes to smoothly feed the fabric forward. This gives you greater control when sewing curves and detailed shapes.

External Laser Guideline Marker

The BX1 also features an External Laser Guideline Marker that projects an adjustable laser guideline onto your fabric. Use it as a visual guide when sewing straight lines, following fabric edges, or working with decorative stitches for more accurate placement.

Compact Digital Dual Feed Foot

Working with thick, slippery, or layered fabrics is easier with the Compact Digital Dual Feed Foot. Its belt-driven system helps control the feeding speed of your fabric for improved handling when standard presser feet may not provide enough control.
