App's acting up, making the machine useless.

When everything clicks, it does a solid job—creates beautiful stitching and is quite user-friendly. Lately, though, I've run into a hiccup. My app is acting up, refusing to let me save and resume my project. I've troubleshooted, from resetting the WiFi to reloading the app, but even with a subscription, the option to save seems elusive. It's a bit of a bummer, especially since it's the key to using the embroidery machine. =(

Easy and fun to use

I've never used an embroidery machine before and found this easy and fun to use. It works well, is quick and easy to set up, and the app is fun. My only complaint is that the app and the machine never stay connected to each other and I have to keep resetting it.

Nice addition
on March 28, 2025

I own several Brother machines from sewing to embroidery and embroidery/sewing combos. This was a welcomed addition for the pricing of a single needle and free arm machine. I have been able to do many things with it and looking forward to more. The magnetic hoop is awesome.

Needs improvement

I don’t like that you have to use the app and also we cannot get the tension right no matter how we adjust. The bobbin thread shows through the design.

Great Machine + App
on July 29, 2024
Posted by: TailormadeTae
I absolutely love my Skitch! The smaller hoop is not an issue because the ease of hooping makes up for that and some. The ease of the machine+app in general in sort of mind blowing. I see a lot of complaints about limits with the machine but as long as you pick the right projects to do, it’s a step up from Brother other machines and I’m looking forward to bigger hoops, but I’m not waiting. This is a real, UNPAID review so don’t get it twisted and stop listening to those Karens.

Bad buy
on June 24, 2024
Posted by: Nooo
I was excited to get the Brother Skitch Embroidery Machine and was very disappointed when I got it. You have to pay to use the better fonts, designs and you can't use your own design unless you pay a monthly fee. This is not a good buy. Sending it back.

Idk what I doing wrong, the bobbin holder keeps coming loose which causes me to break the needle, have had machine for a week and already broke like 5 needles.
