About this machine

The Brother LB6800PRW is a Project Runway sewing and embroidery machine with 67 built-in sewing stitches, ten one-step buttonholes, 70 built-in embroidery designs and a 4 x 4 inch maximum embroidery area. Brother's Project Runway comparison also lists computer connectivity, a Quick-Set bobbin and embroidery speeds up to 400 stitches per minute.

LB6800PRW combines a compact embroidery field with normal sewing

The Project Runway comparison gives the LB6800PRW a 4 x 4 embroidery area and 70 built-in embroidery designs, but the same machine also has 67 sewing stitches and ten one-step buttonholes. It is a combination machine, not a compact embroidery-only unit.

Computer connectivity expands the design source

Brother lists computer connectivity for LB6800PRW. That lets the machine receive additional embroidery files, but the 4 x 4 field still limits one design. File transfer and hoop size are separate questions.

Project Runway branding does not establish parts compatibility

The machine shares Project Runway branding with NQ1300PRW, NQ900PRW and NQ700PRW, but those are sewing and quilting models with very different chassis. The brand tie is useful navigation, not evidence that accessories interchange.
