135 Designs on a 3.7" Color LCD

Inside the machine are 135 built-in designs, split between 75 motif designs and 60 alphabet and frame designs, plus 10 embroidery fonts for names and initials.

Each design is edited on the 3.7" color LCD before stitching. Drag and drop moves it into place by touch, so placement is set on screen rather than by test stitching.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Brother PE545 sew as well as embroider?

No. The PE545 is a dedicated embroidery machine, so every control is built around the hoop and the design screen. If you want one machine that sews and embroiders, the Brother SE700 adds 103 sewing stitches and works on the same 4" x 4" embroidery field.

How large a design can the PE545 stitch, and which hoop is included?

The maximum embroidery area is 4" x 4" (100 mm x 100 mm), a good size for monograms, labels and small motifs. A 4" x 4" embroidery frame ships with the machine, along with the embroidery foot Q already installed.

How do embroidery designs get onto the PE545?

Over wireless LAN. Brother's free Design Database Transfer software sends designs from a computer with no USB stick required. The Artspira app adds pen and eraser drawing tools, so you can sketch a design up to 4" x 4" on a phone and send it to the machine.

How many designs and fonts are built into the PE545?

There are 135 built-in embroidery designs: 75 motif designs and 60 alphabet and frame designs. Ten embroidery fonts are included for lettering. Designs can be edited on screen and dragged into position by touch on the 3.7" color LCD.

How fast does the PE545 embroider?

Up to 400 stitches per minute. An advanced needle threading system speeds up setup, and the automatic thread cutter trims the thread when a section finishes, so color changes take less time.

What warranty comes with the PE545?

Brother's standard limited warranty is 1 / 2 / 25 years: 1 year on parts, labor and accompanying accessory items, 2 years on electronic components and printed circuit boards with replacement labor excluded, and 25 years on the chassis casting. Quality Sewing adds a 1-Year Quality Sewing Warranty. Compare it with our other embroidery machines.
