Brother SE 400 Adds USB Port And Replaces Brother SE 350

Brother just released the Brother SE400 Embroidery And Sewing Machine With USB Port to replace the SE350.

The Brother SE 400 is identical to the very popular Brother SE 350 except that the SE-400 has been upgraded with a USB port and cable that attaches to your computer. This means that you don’t have to buy expensive software and an embroidery card writer/reader when you want to embroider designs that aren’t built-in to the machine.

You can find a vast number of embroidery designs on the Internet, many for free or at a very low cost

You just download the designs you like (in .pes or .dst format) and save them on your own personal computer. Then when you’re ready, connect your computer to the SE 400′s USB port with the included USB cable, import the designs and stitch them out. You can find step-by-step instructions over on Simply Embroidery in the article, “How To Download Embroidery Designs Into A Brother SE400.”

If you’re just getting into embroidery and want a good beginner embroidery machine with intermediate sewing capabilities or if you want to upgrade your sewing machine and add on embroidery capabilities, then the Brother SE-400 is a fabulous machine to have because it embroiders as well as sews. You’re getting both stitching worlds in one compact machine at a fraction of what you’d pay for the two machines separately.

As an embroidery machine, the Brother SE-400 offers 70 built-in embroidery designs, 5 monogramming fonts, and 120 frame pattern combinations. As an entry level embroidery machine — rated tops! — a great value for the money.

In addition to the embroidery features, the Brother SE-400 is a standalone computerized regular sewing machine with 67 built-in sewing stitches including 10 styles of one-step automatic buttonholes. All the stitches you would ever want.

The Brother SE-400 comes with a full array of accessories [including!that includes] almost everything you need to get started. Just add some fabric and thread and you’ll be on your way in no time to expressing your creativity.

In short, if you want the convenience of a combination embroidery and sewing machine in a compact, easy-to-use machine, you can’t beat the Brother SE400 for value for money.
