Baby Lock Solaris 2 Sewing and Embroidery Machine

Perfect Embroidery Placement

While in embroidery mode, choose from three different projection backgrounds (black, grey, or white) based on the fabric choices to see your design clearly. The needle drop laser is displayed in a point or a “T” pattern for even more precise placement.

Perfect Sewing Placement with the Baby Lock Solaris 2

The Baby lock Solaris 2 uses a variety of guideline markers and grids for perfect placement. While in sewing mode, switch between three different laser colors (red, green, and white) for better visibility based on fabric choices. Single, double, angles, and grid lines are ideal for piecing precision, stitch adjustment, and aligning starting points and very wide stitches.

10-5/8″ x 16″ and 10-5/8″ x 10-5/8″ Hoop Sizes
