For many sewists, there comes a point when the passion becomes something more.
A hobby becomes a sideline.
A creative itch becomes a business.
That’s when the Brother VR embroidery machine steps in.
More Than a Machine — A New Chapter Begins
The Brother VR is a single-needle, free-arm embroidery machine that offers the freedom of commercial embroidery in a compact, easy-to-use format. It’s the perfect next step for those who have outgrown their home embroidery machine — and who are looking to take on larger jobs, faster production, or more professional results.
Unlike flatbed embroidery machines, the VR allows you to embroider onto tricky areas — sleeves, tote bags, baby clothes, and more — thanks to its free-arm design. With a maximum embroidery area of 200 x 200mm and speeds up to 1,000 stitches per minute, it’s built for efficiency without intimidation.
But Here’s the Difference — The Bambers Way
When you buy the Brother VR from Bamber Sewing Machines, you don’t just get a box dropped off by a courier.
You get Alan and Steve, personally delivering your machine, setting it up, and giving you a guided walkthrough.
We’ll carry it upstairs.
We’ll answer your questions.
We’ll show you how to thread it.
We’ll stay until you’re confident.
And after that — we’re always a phone call away.
Why Our Customers Choose the VR
We’ve sold and supported hundreds of Brother PR and VR embroidery machines over the years. Many of our customers began their journeys the same way: with a domestic machine, a few orders from friends, and a growing queue of requests.
The Brother VR offers:
- Professional embroidery speeds
- Larger frames for big designs
- Hundreds of built-in patterns and fonts
- USB import for your own logo files
- Precision LED needle positioning
- A bobbin you can wind while it stitches
It gives you freedom. Flexibility. And confidence in every stitch.
We Know the Road – Because We’ve Travelled It
Alan and Steve have delivered Brother VR machines to every corner of the UK mainland — from Scarborough to Salisbury, from London to the Lakes. We’ve helped teachers, nurses, mums, small business owners, and retirees start something new with a VR.
We don’t just deliver the machine.
We deliver the knowledge, the support, and the personal care that only comes from decades in the trade.
