Innov-ís BQ950
Step into essential quilting performance with the Brother Innov-ís BQ950 computerized sewing and quilting machine from the Quilt Club Series! Engineered for quilters and garment creators seeking reliable precision, the BQ950 features a 4.1" x 8.3" workspace, 240 built-in sewing stitches (plus 70 combinable stitches), 10 auto-size one-step buttonhole styles, and 5 built-in sewing fonts. Equipped with longer feed dogs and J foot for powerful feeding, sideways/directional sewing, an advanced needle threading system, and an included Quilters Bundle, this compact machine offers an approachable yet feature-rich platform for all your sewing projects.
Enhanced Feeding & Multi-Directional Stitching: Longer 7-point feed dogs and the specialized J foot ensure smooth, consistent feeding across dense fabric layers. Sideways sewing lets you sew straight and zigzag stitches left and right without re-orienting your work.
Clear Selection & Custom Designs: Easy-to-read 3.1" LCD display pairs with a 10-key touch sensor to select stitches and adjust width (up to 7mm) and length (up to 5mm). Use My Custom Stitch™ to draw and save custom stitch designs directly on screen.
Hassle-Free Sewing: Features an advanced needle threading system, automatic thread tension, jam-resistant Quick-Set drop-in top bobbin, automatic thread cutter button, and a reinforcement stitch button to sew automatic tie-offs.
Compact Quilting Powerhouse: Offers 8.3" throat space for maneuvering small to mid-size quilt projects. Ships with a Wide Table, Straight Stitch Foot, Straight Stitch Needle Plate, 2-Spool Thread Stand, Knee Lifter, and protective dust cover.
Longer Feed Dogs & Sideways Sewing
Sew Sideways Without Re-Orienting Your Work
Sideways sewing lets you stitch straight and zigzag patterns left and right without needing to rotate or reposition your fabric. Longer 7-point feed dogs paired with the specialized J foot keep feeding smooth and consistent even across dense, multi-layered fabric.
My Custom Stitch™ & Touch Sensor
Design Your Own Stitches With My Custom Stitch
My Custom Stitch™ lets you draw and save custom stitch designs directly on the screen, going beyond what's built into the library. The 3.1" LCD display pairs with a 10-key touch sensor to select stitches and adjust width and length quickly.
240 Built-In Stitches
240 Stitches Plus 70 You Can Combine
240 stitches come built in, and 70 of them can be combined into custom sequences — plus 10 auto-size one-step buttonholes and 5 lettering fonts round out the library.
Needle Threading & Auto Cutter
Threading and Bobbin Setup Made Simple
An advanced needle threading system pairs with a jam-resistant Quick-Set drop-in top bobbin, simplifying two of the most repetitive setup steps. An automatic thread cutter button and a reinforcement stitch button handle trimming and tie-offs without reaching for scissors or manually backstitching.
4.1" x 8.3" Workspace
Room for Small to Mid-Size Quilts
An 8.3" throat space handles small to mid-size quilt projects, and the included wide extension table adds stability for larger pieces.
Quilters Bundle
A Quilters Bundle Included in the Box
The machine ships with a Quilters Bundle: a wide table, a straight stitch foot, a straight stitch needle plate, and a 2-spool thread stand — extras built specifically for quilting projects.
