Brother Expedition BX1 – One Machine. Endless Creative Adventures!

Discover the Joy of Sewing, the Magic of Embroidery, and a Whole New World of Possibilities!

Why limit your creativity to just one kind of project when there's a whole world of sewing, quilting, and embroidery waiting to be explored?

Meet the Brother Expedition BX1, an extraordinary combination sewing and embroidery machine designed to make creating easier, more exciting, and a whole lot more fun!

Imagine spending the morning piecing a beautiful quilt, the afternoon sewing a new outfit, and the evening adding a personalized embroidered design to a special gift. With the BX1, you can enjoy all those creative possibilities on one remarkably versatile machine.

And perhaps the best part? Brother has packed the BX1 with thoughtful innovations that help take the frustration out of creating and put the enjoyment back in!

Sewing Should Be Fun. And the BX1 Makes Sure It Is!

Have you ever wished your sewing machine could make some of those tricky sewing tasks just a little easier?

The BX1 introduces Brother's innovative Curve Sewing feature, which automatically reduces presser foot pressure when the needle is in the fabric, making it easier to guide your project smoothly around curves. Imagine how enjoyable appliqué, curved piecing, and decorative stitching can become!

The External Laser Guideline Marker projects a helpful guideline directly onto your fabric, making it easier to sew straight seams and keep decorative stitching beautifully aligned.

And the Compact Digital Dual Feed Foot helps keep multiple fabric layers moving together smoothly, even when you're working with challenging materials.

Add the convenience of automatic needle threading, automatic thread cutting, automatic thread tension, and the pivot function, and suddenly those little interruptions that can take the fun out of sewing become much less of a concern.

Less Fussing with Your Machine. More Enjoying What You're Making!

Now, Let Your Imagination Discover Embroidery!

Here's where the BX1 opens an entirely new world of creative possibilities!

Imagine turning an ordinary towel into a personalized gift, adding a beautiful embroidered design to a jacket, or creating a treasured keepsake for someone special.

With 774 built-in embroidery designs, 23 embroidery lettering fonts, and 140 frame pattern variations, you'll have an incredible collection of creative inspiration right at your fingertips.

And with a generous 8" x 14" embroidery area, you have plenty of room to create impressive designs for garments, quilts, home décor, and personalized gifts.

The BX1's 2-Point Embroidery Positioning with LED Pointer helps take the guesswork out of placing designs, while Matrix Copy makes it easy to create repeating patterns and decorative arrangements.

And with wireless connectivity and Brother's Artspira app, even more creative possibilities are just a few taps away.

Because Sometimes the Most Wonderful Gifts Are the Ones You Create Yourself!

Big Ideas. Plenty of Room. Wonderful Possibilities!

Whether you're working on a quilt, a garment, or a beautiful embroidery project, having enough room to work comfortably makes a real difference.

The BX1 offers a generous 10 inches of sewing workspace to the right of the needle, giving you the freedom to manage larger projects without feeling cramped.

And with an impressive 754 built-in sewing stitches, including practical utility stitches, beautiful decorative patterns, and creative lettering options, you'll have plenty of ways to add your own personal touch to almost anything you make.

Want something completely unique? My Custom Stitch even lets you create and save your own decorative stitch designs!

It's not about having hundreds of stitches just to have hundreds of stitches.

It's about having the freedom to make every project uniquely yours!

Sophisticated Technology. Surprisingly Simple to Enjoy!

One of the nicest things about the Expedition BX1 is that all its impressive capabilities are presented through a beautifully intuitive 7-inch high-definition color touchscreen.

Selecting stitches, adjusting settings, previewing embroidery designs, and experimenting with creative possibilities are all made easier through clear menus and convenient on-screen controls.

Brother has worked to make advanced sewing and embroidery technology feel approachable, so you can spend less time figuring out your machine and more time enjoying your projects.

Whether you're an experienced sewist discovering embroidery for the first time or a creative enthusiast ready to explore both worlds, the BX1 gives you room to learn, experiment, and grow.

One Machine. Two Creative Worlds. Endless Enjoyment!

The Brother Expedition BX1 is much more than an impressive collection of sewing stitches, embroidery designs, and advanced technology.

It's the freedom to try something new.

It's the satisfaction of creating something beautiful.

It's the excitement of discovering that you can do more than you ever imagined.

And it's the enjoyment of having one extraordinary machine that makes both sewing and embroidery a pleasure.

From industry-first technology to professional-level convenience, every feature has been designed to help you sew, quilt, and embroider with greater precision, creativity, and confidence.


Industry-First Curve Sewing™
One of the BX1's most exciting innovations is Curve Sewing™.

As the needle lifts, the machine resumes normal feeding automatically.

Perfect for:

  • Appliqué
  • Curved piecing
  • Decorative stitching
  • Circular quilting
  • Garment construction

External Laser Guideline Marker
Achieve straighter seams and perfectly aligned decorative stitches with the new External Laser Guideline Marker. The adjustable laser projects a highly visible guide directly onto your fabric, making it easier than ever to maintain consistent spacing and accurate stitching.


Massive Sewing & Embroidery Workspace
Large projects are easier than ever thanks to the BX1's generous 10-inch throat space and expansive 8" × 14" embroidery field. Whether you're quilting a king-size quilt or embroidering oversized jacket backs, you'll appreciate the extra room to work comfortably.

Compact Digital Dual Feed
Difficult fabrics become easy to manage thanks to Brother's Compact Digital Dual Feed System. The electronically controlled belt-driven feeding system keeps multiple fabric layers moving evenly for exceptional results on quilts, slippery fabrics, vinyl, fleece, denim, and other challenging materials.


Wireless Connectivity with Artspira®
The BX1 seamlessly connects to Brother's Artspira® creative platform, allowing you to wirelessly transfer embroidery designs, browse exclusive projects, create original artwork, and access new creative content directly from your smartphone or tablet.


My Stitch Monitor™
Stay connected to your embroidery from anywhere in your home. The My Stitch Monitor™ app lets you monitor embroidery progress remotely while receiving notifications for thread changes, thread breaks, and project completion right on your mobile device.


Large 7-Inch HD Touchscreen
