Take your sewing up a notch with the fun Brother Innovis F420 sewing machine. This mid-range model offers great value for money and an abundance of easy-to-use sewing, craft and quilting functions.

The Brother Innovis F420 sewing machine has gained a lot of fans due to its limited noise when stitching, so you can happily sew away while listening to your favourite sewing podcast or box set!

This versatile machine boasts the latest super smooth rotary system and Square Feed Drive System to handle any fabric from your simple craft cotton to slippery satin or heavy-duty denim. You can move or feed materials backwards and forwards under your presser foot for precise fabric handling with perfect seams whatever the weight.

The sewing ‘control centre’ allows you to simply select your stitches from the 140 decorative stitches available, as well as three lettering styles and five fonts, giving you plenty to play around with! We love the combination of straight, stretch and decorative stitches, which combined with the automatic foot pressure means you’re ready to get to work in no time. You can also create custom stitches and store extra stitches with the built-in machine memory function, making it perfect for personalising your projects or pre-saving favourite combinations.

At the touch of a button, the Brother Innovis F420 can convert to twin needle settings, ready to use on your knit and jersey hems to create a professional finish in no time.

If quilting is more your thing then the straight stitches and variable speed control make for a really enjoyable sewing experience and there are even mock hand quilting stitches in the arsenal of pre-sets to give your quilts and home décor projects a beautiful finish.
