Brother Pacesetter PS500 Sewing Machine

Serious Sewing Space. Serious Capability. The Brother Pacesetter PS500.

The Brother Pacesetter PS500 Sewing Machine is engineered for sewists who are ready to work on bigger projects with greater precision and more creative options. With an expansive workspace, a rich stitch library that includes lettering fonts, and smart finishing features like the reinforcement stitch, the PS500 is the machine that handles ambitious sewing with the confidence and control you need.

100 Built-In Stitches, 7 Buttonhole Styles & 4 Sewing Lettering Fonts

The PS500 comes loaded with 100 built-in sewing stitches spanning utility, stretch, decorative, and heirloom applications — everything you need to tackle virtually any sewing project with the right stitch every time. Choose from 7 styles of 1-step automatic buttonholes to match the look and function of any garment, from classic tailored shirts to casual wear and home décor. What truly sets the PS500 apart is the addition of 4 sewing lettering fonts — stitch names, monograms, labels, and personalized text directly onto your projects without an embroidery machine. It's a creative capability that opens up a whole new dimension of personalization for quilts, garments, bags, and gifts.

Generous 8.3" Needle-to-Arm Workspace

Space matters when you're working on large projects, and the PS500 delivers with a substantial 8.3" clearance from needle to arm — one of the most spacious work areas in its class. That extra room makes a real difference when you're guiding a large quilt through the machine, working on wide fabric panels, or maneuvering bulky layered projects. Less bunching, less wrestling with fabric, and more control over every seam. Whether you're quilting a full-size throw or constructing a structured bag, the PS500's workspace gives you the room to do it right.

Reinforcement Stitch for Stronger, More Durable Seams

The PS500's built-in reinforcement stitch automatically secures the beginning and end of every seam with a series of short, overlapping stitches — locking the thread in place for a seam that won't unravel under stress. It's an essential feature for projects that take wear and strain: bags and totes, children's clothing, activewear, upholstery, and any garment that needs to hold up to real-world use. One touch, and your seams are secured with professional-grade durability.
