Brother XR37NT Sewing Machine Review

Sometimes simplicity is best when it comes to your next sewing machine.

Having a sewing machine that only covers the basics allows you to really hone your skills and creativity. Simple mechanical machines are actually quite versatile in what you can do with it them! And the Brother XR37NT model is a fantastic little machine that oozes simplicity and versatility, and is a popular choice within the Brother sewing machines range.

This sewing machine is mechanical only. That means that everything is selected by hand rather than just buttons and screens. It makes it easier to use and select your stitches. It’s very straightforward and no-nonsense. That makes it a great machine for anyone who is just starting out with sewing, or for anyone who uses their machine casually. It’s also fairly priced for anyone on a budget.

If you work with lightweight fabrics, such as satin, chiffon, or double gauze, you’ll love working with this machine. It won’t be too rough with lightweight fabrics so you can avoid any tearing and fraying as you work with the more delicate dress fabrics.

The Brother XR23NT features 37 unique stitches including 1 versatile buttonhole. You’ll have plenty of options to create anything you can think of, from beautiful quilts to intricate cosplay costumes and so much more.

If you’re one who likes to free motion quilt or free embroider, you will appreciate being able to easily drop the feed dogs on sewing machines like this. It also has an automatic needle threader to make threading the machine very easy! And the bobbin is easy to thread as well, being a top loading bobbin. All you need to do is drop it into the machine and wrap the thread around the corresponding spots and you’re ready to sew!

The workspace on this machine is great for any sewist. You’ll have 6 inches of workspace to the right of the needle, which is enough to feed moderately sized quilts through easily. It also has a bright LED work light that will provide your workspace with plenty of light so that you can see exactly what your machine is doing.

One of our favourite accessories that comes with this sewing machine is the case. A hard case is included! Hard cases are great for a number of reasons. First, they help protect your machine from dust when its not in use. Second, if you like to travel with your sewing machine, a hard case protects it from bumps and dings along the way.

If you’re thinking about making this your quilt piecing machine, then you may consider adding a few quilting-specific presser feet to your order when purchasing the Brother XR37NT Sewing Machine. Presser feet like a 1/4inch foot or a quilting foot for free motion quilting.

A walking foot is great for any kind of sewing that you need to feed multiple layers or very slippery fabric through. It helps to even the feed rate on the top of the fabric to match the rate that the feed dogs work. It’s one of those tools that are highly versatile and will be an asset to any maker.

Those who want to create cosplay costumes or soft furnishings may want to look into purchasing a clear view foot or a non-stick foot to help feed fabrics that are usually difficult to feed through a machine.
