If you live outside of Louisville, any Baby Lock dealer in the country will service your machine under warranty. Every machine we sell also comes with owner classes, which matter more than usual on a cover stitch machine, because most of what makes a hem look professional is technique rather than settings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baby Lock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51098570752247,"sku":"BLP6","price":2799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/5204\/6327\/files\/baby-lock-applaud.webp?v=1775054201"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/5204\/6327\/collections\/2026_TwoSergerShoppingSpree_640x360_26f1e19f-a150-47fb-afb2-c996e3378e8b.jpg?v=1784306501","url":"https:\/\/quiltedjoy.live\/collections\/july-august-serger-shopping-spree.oembed","provider":"Quilted Joy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
