Our take on the Brother NQ1700E Fashion Creator 2 Embroidery Machine

The Brother NQ1700E Fashion Creator 2 is an embroidery-only machine built for makers who want a larger field and more built-in designs than entry-level models offer. It has a 6" x 10" embroidery area, 258 built-in designs, 140 frame pattern combinations and 13 lettering fonts, run from a 4.85" color LCD touchscreen. Wireless design transfer, automatic thread cutting, automatic tension and Color Sort cut down on manual steps between color changes. It suits embroiderers stepping up from a small-hoop machine; compared with combo sewing-embroidery machines it gives up sewing but gains hoop size and design library at this level.

What reviewers say

  • 5 / 513 ratings

Owners rate it highly, praising the large embroidery field, the touchscreen and the smooth automatic thread cutting. The main reservations are that it embroiders only and that wireless transfer needs Brother's software set up correctly.

Questions and answers

Does the NQ1700E sew as well as embroider?
No. It is an embroidery-only machine, so you need a separate sewing machine for seams, hems and quilting.
What hoops come in the box?
Two hoops are included: a 5" x 7" and a 6" x 10" frame, matching the machine's maximum embroidery area.
How do I get designs onto the machine?
You can use the built-in designs or transfer your own wirelessly through Brother's Design Database Transfer or PE-Design 11 software.
Is it a good step up from an entry-level embroidery machine?
Yes, if you want a bigger hoop and more built-in designs. It gives up sewing capability, so compare it with combo machines if you need both.
Does it cut thread automatically?
Yes. It has automatic thread cutting and automatic thread tension, and Color Sort reorders stitches to limit color changes.
Can I use other Brother hoops and frames?
It works with compatible Brother frames and accessories, including magnetic frames sized for its embroidery field.
