Quilting

Sandwiching batting between the top and bottom layers of 
fabric is called “quilting”. Quilts can easily be sewn using 
the walking foot* and the quilting guide*.
* Items sold separately, please contact your authorized 

Baby Lock retailer.

a

Baste the fabric to be quilted.

b

Remove the presser foot and the presser foot holder.

• For details, refer to “Removing and attaching the 

presser foot holder” on page 33.

c

Hook the connecting fork of the walking foot onto the 
needle clamp screw.

d

Lower the presser foot lever, and then tighten the 
presser foot holder screw with the screwdriver.

e

Select a stitch.

• For details, refer to “Stitch Chart” on page 49.

f

Place one hand on each side of the presser foot, and 
then evenly guide the fabric while sewing.

Using the quilting guide (sold separately with some 
models)

Use the quilting guide to sew parallel stitches that are 
equally spaced.

a

Insert the stem of the quilting guide into the hole at the 
rear of the walking foot or presser foot holder.

b

Adjust the stem of the quilting guide so that the guide 
aligns with the seam that has already been sewn.

Free motion quilting

We recommend attaching the foot controller and sewing 
at a consistent speed. You can adjust the sewing speed 
with the speed control slide on the machine.

Note

• Thread the needle manually when using the 

walking foot, or attach the walking foot only after 
threading the needle using the needle threader.

• When quilting, use a 90/14 home sewing machine 

needle.

• When sewing with the walking foot, sew at a speed 

between slow and medium.

• When using the walking foot, test sew on a scrap 

piece of fabric that is to be used in project.

Memo

• When [Automatic Fabric Sensor System] in the 

settings screen is set to [ON], the thickness of the 
fabric is automatically detected by the internal 
sensor so the fabric can be fed smoothly for best 
sewing results. (page 40)

Connecting fork

Needle clamp screw

 CAUTION

• Be sure to securely tighten the screws with the 

screwdriver, otherwise the needle may touch 
the presser foot, causing it to bend or break.

• Before starting to sew, slowly turn the 

handwheel toward you (counterclockwise) and 
check that the needle does not touch the 
presser foot. If the needle hits the presser foot, 
the needle may bend or break.

b

No.

 CAUTION

• With free motion quilting, control the feeding 

speed of the fabric to match the sewing speed. 
If the fabric is moved faster than the sewing 
speed, the needle may break or other damage 
may result.
