Needles
Thread
All types of thread may be used on your Baby Lock, but 100% polyester long fiber thread,
crosswound on a cone, consistently provides the best stitch performance. Because the threads must
pass through several thread guides at high speeds, they must be of uniform thickness and high
strength while producing a minimum amount of lint.
Good quality cotton or cotton covered polyester threads sew well, though they produce more lint,
creating the need to clean the machine more frequently. They work well for overedging and
seaming, but they may be too weak or too fuzzy for the rolled edge. Poor grades of thread can result
in frequent fraying, breaking and unbalanced stitches.
Threads of other fiber contents and weights may be used, depending on their strength and thickness.
Testing will help you determine the stitch quality and how easily the threads can pass through the
thread guides, thread slots, needles and loopers.
Important Note:
For maximum performance of the Baby Lock Triumph, it is recommended to use
"100% polyester long fiber thread". This thread also performs best when used with many decorative
threads for sewing specialty decorative techniques.
