An employee in a Japanese factory saw his friend hemming trousers by hand and realized he could invent a better, easier, and more efficient solution. He decided to redesign the industrial overlocker and began developing a smaller, more convenient overlock serger – a “baby lock.” It worked, and it worked well -- ultimately revolutionizing the way garments are made.
A St. Louis based, family-owned company saw the benefit of this new machine and brought it to the United States. This new home serger was the first Baby Lock. It gave home sewers the opportunity to finish garments like a professional machine.
Over the years, Baby Lock has continued to revolutionize sergers. Today, Baby Lock has many patents to its name. Modern Baby Lock sergers have numerous innovative features, making them easy to use for all sorts of projects. RevolutionAir™ Threading, for instance, lets you thread your loopers and needles each with the touch of a button. And thanks to the Automatic Thread Delivery™ System, no tension knobs are needed. A balanced stitch is delivered on any fabric with any type of thread.
Impressive features aren’t the only things you’ll get with Baby Lock. The Baby Lock Retailer Network is dedicated to sewing enthusiasts like you. Plus, Baby Lock also offers a wealth of education and online sewing classes that continue to grow every day.
