Hy awant to know to put the preser foot on tha machine
Always a pleasure to watch Gary's video... Such a pity you aren't in Italy :(
@staredsky Thank you! You could move to Australia ;) lol.. thank you for watching :)
@@EchidnaClub Come to visit Italy!!! In my city, I will be your guide!
Great tutorial!
@kathimassey312 Thank you for your feedback and we appreciate you watching!
Very helpful
@Nachi_official That it great to hear! Thank you for your feedback!
Will this maschine embroider on thick towels up to 700 gsm.
@anderslarsen8546 We do not recommend embroidering on super thick towels as the embroidery becomes distorted and will not stitch properly. If you were to stitch onto thick towels, it would be recommended to stitch a knockdown stitch first to be under the design to reduce pile and thickness.
Can you clarify, the "F" frame came with the magnetic hoop, or it came with the machine?
@katherine5587 The "F" Arm is available in a kit with the Magnetic Frame - either the 4" x 4" or the 5" x 7": www.echidnasewing.com.au/pr-magnetic-frame-4-x4-m-clamp-kit www.echidnasewing.com.au/pr-magnetic-frame-5-x7-l-clamp-kit
Great tutorial!!! ❤❤❤ I'm so glad I found this excellent video. Straight to the point, easy to understand, touched on all the important points, especially for a first time user of this particular machine. Explanations were not too fast or too slow - clear and concise I really enjoyed watching it and highly recommend it.
@margiemartinez9568 Thank you for watching and providing feedback. We hope you love using your new machine!
My Machine was comming today😍Thank you so much for this Fantastic Video🍀😊
@maritabreivogel2493 Hope you enjoy your new machine!
how loud is this machine?
@parang889 As it is an overlocker it is a little bit loud but this is a bit hard to quantify through messages. It is a great machine though and stitches well!
Loved your video. I have this serger and love it. Your video was a nice refresher even though I have had mine a few years. I was looking for a video on the piping foot for this serger. I do a good amount of home decorating projects and believe it would save me time. I have been applying piping with my sewing machine then serge seams. Would piping foot allow me to do in one step? I typically use 5/32 piping.👏🏻👍🏻
@dalenekitslaar7233 Thanks for watching and we are glad you found it helpful! Here is a video link for you about using the piping foot: ruclips.net/video/ukuDXy4Re9g/видео.html
I just got mine from John Deer-can't wait to use them!!!
@crissaducharme4104 That's great - they will definitely be an asset to your embroidery process!
Please will you make a video on how to make a badge or a tag for a suitcase? ❤❤

@carolhiller1112 <3 Thank you! :)
Gary, this is a very NICE VIDEO YOU MADE!!!! This machine is awesome!!!! But I have a problem, I do not quilt, I am an Embroiderer, and I have a Pacemaker and I can not get any magnetic field near by me coz the magnetism will mess my pacemaker. I prefer the Endless Border less hoop to any magnetic hoop for its easy effortless manipulation. Is there one available for this machine? My old Viking has two available, a 10 x 6 and a 5 x 7. Do Brother also have them as extra hoops? I would really like more embroidery videos without adding any quilting features. But I liked the video and the machine!!!! Thanks a lot!!!!
@jorgerobles628 Thank you for watching! We appreciate your feedback! There are a couple of border hoops available that may help you: www.echidnasewing.com.au/?skw=100mm%20Slide-on%20Embroidery%20Border%20hoop There are other size hoops, which machine do you own and we may be able to direct you to further hoops that are standard frames. If you have any further questions, please let us know.

Comment regarder la vidéo en français
@cosettevallantin158 Bonjour, nous vous recommandons de suivre en utilisant la transcription et vous pourrez ensuite traduire car nous n'avons pas les moyens de transposer en français.
This was such a great video. I learned so much. Thank you for your time!!!!
@deborahkessler7718 Glad it was helpful! And thank you for watching and giving us wonderful feedback!
Sometimes clients ask to embroidery their logo... what about a tutorial about this subject on one of the Brother machines?
@staredsky Were you refering to a badge being made with a logo? Here is a link to all our articles on how to create embroideries. www.echidnasewing.com.au/article/embroidery/ Embroidering a logo starts with getting it digitized and then what the clients would like the logo to be stitched on, we try to cover all this with the videos that we have available about doing embroideries :) We encourage people to give us a call or reach out with any questions.
@@EchidnaClub thx!
What is the price of this machine? Is delivery service available for Saudi Arabia?
The price for this machine is listed on our webpage: www.echidnasewing.com.au/brother-m370-sewing-embroidery-machine Unfortunately we are unable to ship to your country.
Excellent video Rachel. What fabric did you use to embroider on and what stabilizer did you use please?
@blossom6078 To create the badge, Rachael used our Twill fabric: www.echidnasewing.com.au/polyester-twill-fabric and it would have been created on washaway: www.echidnasewing.com.au/echidna-washaway-50gsm-20-x-10yard-roll Let us know if you need any further information.
really like the fabric in the video
@meaghannwebb2669 It is very pretty we agree! It is a Kimberbell fabric: www.echidnasewing.com.au/peachy-pink-doodles-kimberbell-basics-fat-quarter
I’m making a bag with 60cm x 60cm main body pieces. Do the straps remain the same length as original tutorial. Can you help me with where to place them as that will be different to the instructions.
@wazblind The straps would move but it would be up to you where you feel it would be comfortable - it looks to be a ratio of 1:4 in how the straps are placed on the mini duffle bag.
What is the formula of the Brother embroidery and sewing machine?
@preboo_stitches Are you asking what the file type it uses for embroidery? If you are it takes the .PES format for embroideries
How much is it?
@user-iq3vk2ch9v Current pricing is here on our website: www.echidnasewing.com.au/brother-m370-sewing-embroidery-machine
I have a 385 Ken more I got at the thrift and I clean them and donate them but the feed dogs won’t move fabric. I need advice
@janetwilson8408 It sounds like something has broken or is not engaging correctly. It will need to go to a technician.
I am missing something. just can not get my enspire baby lock to do the rolled hem. just can not get it small enough and the tension is also all wrong. can you help please.
@deborahward3535 To do the rolled hem you must take out the left needle, turn the large dial at the front of the machine into the rolled hem sizes (usually is named with grey around it) at 0.75, Set the width dial (small one) to M, Increase your lower looper tension to 7. The needle tension is between 3-5, upper looper is 3. Look on page 47 of your manual: www.babylock.com.au/images/machine-downloads/Enspire-Instruction-Manual.pdf If you need any further help we are available via messages on our website or email us at support@echidnasewing.com.au
Can this sew on leather? What are the specs?
@lynnhufstetler3825, It is able to sew on soft leather to a certain thickness. Here is the link to the machine on our website where you can find more information: www.echidnasewing.com.au/brother-straight-stitch-sewing-machine-model-pq1500
Can these be used on the comparable Baby Lock machine?
@crissaducharme4104 If they are comparable, yes you can.
Excellent video- thank you so much!!! I haven't attached buttons with a sewing machine in many years, and have never done so with my Brother machine. I'm making a duvet cover with a button closure for someone, so this video was incredibly helpful! Fawn 😊
@thethriftyfawn Glad it was helpful and we are sure you will be sewing many more now :)
How to embroider myself from laptop to machine ؟
@preboo_stitches Can you please restate your question?
If I wanted to do a large pice say on the back of a hoody would it be possible on this machine ?
@sarahburgess-hamlett212 Yes it does quite large designs very effectively!
That's some great close up shots there. Very helpful!
@journeyman6752 Glad it was helpful and thank you for your feedback!
Great video and helpful information! I was looking for this information. Is the bigger zig zags ok to use as well?
@journeyman6752 It would be a matter of testing it to see.
Great tutorial and very informative video! I'm wanting to do basic / light work and this machine and the Brother JA 1400 are competing.. Don't know which one I should choose..
@journeyman6752 Both are great machines, but if you are wanting to do a lot of sewing on it, we would recommend the JA1400.
Wow. I was looking at the Brother JA1400 also just for light and basic work. But this is ticking all the right boxes too.
Your tensions are wayyyyy too high. Absolutely nobody recommends that much tension
We find this setting works the best with our threads. With different threads you would adjust accordingly and in the end you need to find a setting you are comfortable with.
What a great tutorial Gary! I was a bit overwhelmed but the way you explained this made it easy to understand.
@journeyman6752 Thank you for your feedback and watching our videos!
What style bobbin is used for this machine?
@mariyamahmed4055 The M370 uses the A style bobbin :)
@@EchidnaClub Thank You
May God bless you. How can I enlarge the drawing and letters and make them smaller if I want?
@preboo_stitches When first selecting the first letter of what you are writing, you will get the option to use LMS (large, medium, small), select the LMS till it is approx the size you are wanting. Go to the next screen where you will be able to use SIZE to resize the word to the size you are wanting. There are limits though to the resizing, both up and down.
Hello, I bought Brother nov with embroidery. When I started to do embroidery it take the thread from down not from upper thread. I wanted to do it all golden thread but it used the bobbin white thread and there was missing areas as thread was finished
@imanhamini 5944 It sounds like you may have thread or lint caught in your tension discs. Best to chat to your technican or you can give us a call on 1800 000 360 if you are in Australia.
When I got my machine ,there was only 2 hoops ,I had to complain to. The shop ,I didn’t get the Accessories box or the spool stand ,the shop said it wasn’t included
@beverleylangley2508 If you purchased the XE2/XE1 it only comes with two hoops. The accessory box contains feet for sewing so it is also not included with these models due to being an embroidery only machine. The spool stand is not included with either machine. It is a fantastic machine though with great features on the machine and if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Fantastic video Rachel - thank you
@blossom6078 Glad you enjoyed it, we appreciate you watching our videos!
I recently bought this machine from you and I’m thrilled with it. Thanks for the video. Very helpful.
@ginaburgess9759 That is great to hear! Thank you for your feedback and watching our video!
THANK YOU! it’s been a while since I have used my sewing machine and this was driving me crazy!!! Yes, a simple push down and thread got it working! Thank you 🫶🏻
@savannahh143 That's great news! Happy sewing!
