The incredible VR from Brother is the most versatile free motion and embroidery machine. Once again the design team at Brother have come up with a stunning idea and brought it to magnificent reality.

Firstly, the VR will produce the crispest, high quality embroidery of a professional standard, at high speed if you want to, and will allow you to hoop up flat fabrics as well as tubular items (pockets, cuffs, trouser legs etc) because it has a wonderful free arm.

Secondly, it converts very quickly and easily into a truly awesome free-motion quilting machine and the beauty is two-fold. You can slide your fabric in any direction without the restriction you get to the right of needle with a standard machine AND the stitch quality is supreme on both top and bottom of the fabric with the VR capable of handling multi-layers with ease. The Free Motion Wide Table kit is required to do free motion work, available as a separate accessory for £399.00.

Main features

• LED pointer for perfect needle positioning - The LED pointer makes it easy to see exactly where the needle will drop allowing you to position your designs perfectly on the fabric.
• Advanced needle threading system - Thread the needle in seconds with the press of a button. One of the industries easiest threading systems, the same system as on the multi-needle professional models.
• Easy access to bobbin -  "Anytime" access to the vertical bobbin located at the end of the tubular arm lets you easily change the bobbin without having to remove the hoop. The slim arm is capable of going inside trousers, pockets, sleeves and bags.
• 4-Spool Thread Stand - Conveniently holds 4 spools of thread so that your next colours are to hand and speedily changed. Just tie your new colour to the end of your previous colour and pull through the machine it couldn't be easier!
• Independent bobbin winder - Yes, ingeniously, the built-in independent bobbin winder allows you to wind a new bobbin while the machine is embroidering - you can also use pre-wound bobbins too.
• Included frames - Of course you'll need the correct frame for your project and these are standard equipment. You can also buy round frames, cap frame and border frame too if you want to create a fully featured home business.
• Thread colour sorting - When you have combined designs that use the same colours just have the machine sort them for you so that you don't have to keep re-threading the same colour. The machine automatically stitches the design by colour order so you only thread that colour once into the machine. This great feature alone can save a huge amount of time.
• Multiple line text input - The new "enter" key to the right of the keyboard screen starts a new line of text below the previous line which can be left, centre or right aligned. Great for verse, name & date quilt labels, wedding and birthday embroideries - basically any project that needs multi-line wording.The VR is a lot faster when stitching compared to a conventional domestic embroidery model because the machine design has been developed from the commercial PR range, ensuring the best-quality embroideries and virtually snag-free stitching on even the most challenging projects.The maximum embroidery area of the VR is 8in x 8in (200mm x 200mm) which is ideal for quilt blocks, which brings us to another feature that quilters will drool over -
• Movement freedom - Conventional flatbed sewing machines can be restrictive to the right of the needle, not so with this fabulous creation. And because this isn't a "swing needle" machine the stitch quality is gorgeous and multi-layers are a tangle-free breeze.

In summary, the VR is likely to appeal to -

• Embroidery enthusiasts who want a brilliant embroidery-only model
• Quilting Enthusiasts who already have a good sewing machine but want a winning combination of the features described
• Home-based business for fast embroideries, trouble-free operation and professional frame options
