The Brother SE400 Computerized Embroidery Sewing Machine takes the SE350 up a notch by adding a USB port so you can download embroidery patterns and stitches and update your machine through your laptop or computer.
All day long every day without thinking about it you are looking at things that have been sewn. Clothing is one of the most basic needs of human beings and clothing needs to be sewn. There are countless other things that you use or see each day that were sewn.
People have been sewing, joining things together using thread guided by needles, for around 20,000 years. All kinds of materials have been sewn together in the past.
Plain mending involves simple tasks like sewing on buttons and taking up a hem. Many people are able to that. Some tailors and seamstresses specialize in certain techniques like smocking, embroidery, quilting or shirring. They make money while providing a valuable service to others.
Brother SE400 Stitch Patterns
Because this is a combination sewing and embroidery machine, there are loads of stitches to accomplish either type of sewing. (Side Cutter stitches cut the fabric off at the seam during sewing similar to what a serger does for seam edges.)
Those stitches can be modified by adjusting the width or height or applying a mirror, twin or multi-directional stitch function.
For embroidery, there are 70 built-in embroidery designs including flowers, roses, baskets of flowers, animals, plants and birds. You choose the pattern and the machine will guide you through step-by-step including thread color selection. The LCD screen shows how much time it will take to complete each step.
Letters and characters used for embroidery and monogramming are excellent additions to today’s sewing machines and the Brother SE400 includes 5 different fonts.
A wide variety of sewing machines are available today. There are mechanical models, electronic models and even computerized models. Even with all these machines available, many people still prefer hand-sewn products.
There are 10 styles of frame stitches you can use as a border around your work including a square, circle, and diamond and 12 different stitch styles to use in sewing those frames for a total of 120 frame options.
Brother SE400 Presser Feet
The Brother SE400 comes with 8 snap-on presser feet: Buttonhole, Overcasting, Monogramming, Zipper, Zigzag, Blind Stitch, Button Fitting, and the Embroidery foot.
Most product listings describe the machine as having only 7 presser feet but are not counting the embroidery foot in the equation.
