Baby Lock Jubilant

Contrary to its celebratory name, the Baby Lock Jubilant is primarily a sewing and quilting machine, not an embroidery machine. It features 80 built-in stitches and a 7mm stitch width, but it does not have an embroidery unit or hoop. Baby Lock does offer specific embroidery models like the Altair or Solaris if you need automatic design stitching.

Yes, the Jubilant includes a speed control slider that lets you easily dictate how fast the machine sews, even when pressing the foot pedal to the floor. This is especially helpful for beginners or when working on complex, intricate projects. It also features a start/stop button so you can sew without using the foot pedal at all.

Yes, the machine comes equipped with Baby Lock's signature Advanced Needle Threader, which completely automates the threading process. With the push of a single lever, a small hook threads the eye of the needle for you. This feature is a major time-saver and prevents eye strain.

The machine weighs around 17 pounds, making it relatively lightweight and highly portable for a computerized sewing machine. This means it is easy to take with you to quilting classes or sewing retreats. Despite being light, it has a sturdy metal frame inside that keeps it stable at high speeds.
