I am so glad someone is doing these. I am just beginning to get into sewing and simplifying is a must since I do not have the hand on experience yet. Thank You!
All your tutorials are so helpful because I'm a hands on type, I don't like to read the Manual and with these vids I'm able to save time and get to the fun thanks :)
Thank YOU!!! I bought this machine strictly for Monogramming her clothes that she loves to spend so much money on. You dummied it down for me to teach her. I cant thank you Enough!!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I can't believe I've had my machine for 3 years and never embroidered anything. Today, thanks to your video, I was able to embroider a beautiful butterfly on my very first try! Now I need to put embroidered blocks into my quilts!
I personally use Embrilliance Software, which is easy to use and includes several fonts, and options for customization. You can also purchase add on software Alpha Tricks which gives you even more font options. But if you are just getting started, the Embrilliance Essentials should give you enough options. You will find the Embrilliance Essentials link under our videos in the description section. Thank you for visiting our UA-cam Channel. :)
Thank you. I did this part as well. but it seems like the thread gets in the way when I try to put the hoop on. I dont know how to use the sewing machine part either,. so I may just be getting ahead of myself. Thanks
Hi. I watched your Part 1 and part 2 video on the set up and it was very very helpful. I want to monogram the 3 initials for my daughters, and have been told I have to buy software to make the font bigger than what the machine comes with. Can you help me with what is best for this using the Brother SE400? Thank you SO much!!
Thanks for your video. I've had my SE 400 for about a year now and I wanted to ask if you know how to do embroidery in a continious line like a border. I have no idea how to align it. Any tips?
I got this machine for Xmas and I am totally lost. I see you are already threaded.. I can do the top bobbin thdread but I"m completely confused by the bobbin compartment thread and how that fits when you put the embriodery attachment (I did the embriodery foot already) Thanks
Hello I have SE-350 BROTHER"S is your Tutorial will work on my SE-350?.. Been looking for a tutorial but somehow nobody have tutorial for it ...thank you so much .
+Alicia Joyce I would thing the Brother SE350 is very similar to the SE 400. The SE 400 may just have a few more features or stitches. So I would the tutorial would fit in most instances. Hopefully it helps you. Thanks for visiting us.
I'm gonna try & attach my hoop to carrier for some reason you make it look so easy when I do it feels like I'm gonna break something & I give up I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong
Hola me pueden dar el teléfono de donde dan instrucciones para para saber manejar La Máquina Brother la mía es brother se400 y no le puedo hallar Cómo hacer los ojales por eso les pido el teléfono a dónde puedo ir para que me enseñen gracias
glitterglamscrapper For regular embroidery you would use the white bobbin thread. When doing free standing lace embroidery, you would use the same color as upper thread.
I'm having trouble with the stitching and I'm wondering if my machine is defective. The machine runs as if it's stitching and there is nothing on the shirt. I have re-threaded and checked the bobbin and thread and both are fine. It also jams quite often when it does stitch and the stitching stays beneath the shirt surface and I have to cut it away from the bobbin case. Do you have any suggestions for what this could be? Thank you!
Unfortunately this is a matter of trouble shooting in most cases. Continue to check upper and lower threading, needle inserted correctly, tension, type of thread and needle. Referring to your sewing machine manual has a lot of valuable information. There are lots of resources online too. I am not a sewing machine expert, just use this machine for my crafts. It may be helpful to take it in for servicing, and tension set. I did that with mine last year, and it runs great!
Thank you very much for getting back to me. I just bought the machine a few weeks ago, so I will double check all these things you suggest and then if I can't get it to work, maybe see if the store will let me exchange for a new one. Thank you!
Since you posted your question a couple of weeks ago, hopefully your issue has been resolved. I don't have that same machine, and have never experienced that problem, so I am not sure why they aren't showing. Are you using the proper file format for the machine?
Also check to make sure you are not trying to upload a file too big for the machine. It can probably only handle a 4x4 design. Make sure your cable from computer to machine is plugged in securely. I really don't have any other suggestions, so maybe contact support for your machine.
+Keondria Knox The machine works with a memory card or directly from the computer. Your logo design would need to be digitized before it could be embroidered.
+Keondria Knox Digitizing has a definite learning curve. Embrilliance Essentials has embroidery software, with their most advanced being Stitch Artist for digitizing. You can find a link by visiting our website shown on our UA-cam Channel. There are also services that will digitize your logo for a fee. Good luck, and thanks for visiting us.
Thank you so much for making this video! I'm going to start my first embroidery project next week and your video has been so educational. :)

Did you put any stabilizer in there for this fabric at all?
Does this do free hand like the brother pq1500sL
Is HE300 so different??
disengage the feed feet on back before you slide the cnc attachment

My Brother S E 400 embroidery machine did not come with an embroidery foot. Can I use the sewing foot that came with the machine to embroidery?
Deborah Johnson No, you would need the embroidery foot to embroider with the embroidery hoop. It should have come with the foot.

Do we use the double needle that came with the machine?
No. Just a standardl sewing needle, sized according to fabric you are sewing on. I have never used any specialized needle.
Do I change the color of bobbin or do I leave it white all the time? Thanks
glitterglamscrapper For regular embroidery you would use the white bobbin thread. When doing free standing lace embroidery, you would use the same color as upper thread.

@@michellemillington960 - often the issue is the needle when thread is not feeding properly. Try a new needle?
At which point due you put the embroidery needle, since you state that the very first step is to put on the embroidery foot. Or can we use any needle?
Standard sewing machine needle is all I have ever used in my machine for embroidery.
Thank you so much for quick response; but most of all for your great instructional videos.
When I try to upload an image to my se425 it does not show an image so that I can select it.My drivers are updated. What am I doing wrong?
Since you posted your question a couple of weeks ago, hopefully your issue has been resolved. I don't have that same machine, and have never experienced that problem, so I am not sure why they aren't showing. Are you using the proper file format for the machine?
tlcinspirations I have used PES. No luck yet.
Also check to make sure you are not trying to upload a file too big for the machine. It can probably only handle a 4x4 design. Make sure your cable from computer to machine is plugged in securely. I really don't have any other suggestions, so maybe contact support for your machine.
tlcinspirations Thank you.
What happens if I don’t use the little metal thing for the needle
I don't believe the embroidery function would work without the embroidery foot.
"India "price plz....?
could you fit a t-shirt in that machine?
I don't see why you wouldn't be able to embroider on a t-shirt with it. I have sewn large quilts with it.
Can I use my own logo from a flash drive on this machine?
+Keondria Knox The machine works with a memory card or directly from the computer. Your logo design would need to be digitized before it could be embroidered.
+tlcinspirations is there a program that can digitalize it?
