Recently I got a pleasure to test new Brother Stellaire2 Innov-ís XJ2 Sewing & Embroidery Machine. This is by far the most advanced sewing machine I ever worked with and I was surprised by several of its features. So let's talk about surprising things you can expect from advanced sewing machine!
This article is created in partnership with Brother - experts of home sewing, embroidery, quilting, and crafting machines for more than 100 years.
7 Surprising Things About Advanced Sewing Machines
No.1: Accessibility.
The thing that surprised me the most about advanced sewing machine is how it makes sewing more accessible. For example, even though it comes with a foot controller, it's primarily used with a start/stop button - you push the button and machine starts to sew at even pace. Foot controllers can be challenging to use, as they require mobility and precision, and start/stop button fully solves this issue.
Another example is auto-threading of the needle with a push with a needle - again, not precision is needed, the machine will do the challenging task itself, successfully threading the needle every time.
No.2: Size.
With technology, we are often think that 'the smaller - the better', but when it comes to sewing machines - the opposite is true: a large sewing machine will allow you to easily handle large projects, while heavier weight will add stability and comfort when sewing.
No.3: Customization.
Advanced sewing machines allow you to customize everything, and I mean everything: presser foot pressure, presser foot lift height, auto-presser foot lift, auto thread cutting at the end of the seam, and so so much more. And trust me - it's so easy to get used to those custom features!
No.4: Ease of use.
Surprisingly, advanced sewing machines are rather easy to use, as they have a lot of navigation points to help you perform a certain task: there's a manual, but you can also scan QR code on machine and go directly to instruction on your phone; there's also guide of basic tasks shown on the machine screen and you can even watch tutorials right on that large machine screen!
No.5: Versatility, without sacrificing the quality.
Most advanced sewing machines are not only excellent for sewing, but also for quilting or even embroidery. With Stellaire2 Innov-ís XJ2, you can easily switch between the sewing or embroidery tasks easily and get perfect stitch quality on each task.
No.6: Extra goodies.
While extra goodies are not a defining factor whether you should get a machine or not, they definitely sweeten the deal! Usually, advanced sewing machines come with tons of additional accessories and lots of extra features inside: for example, Stellaire2 Innov-ís XJ2 comes with tons of embroidery designs and even 100 of favourite Disney characters to embroider!
No.7: Premium stitch quality.
If there's anything you can expect from advanced sewing machine - it's premium stitch quality. No matter the fabric difficulty, the machine should create excellent stitches, no matter if you're sewing, quilting or embroidering.
