The Celebrate is built so that does not happen. One lever sends thread through the loopers on a puff of air, the needle threader holds in place while it takes the thread through, and the tension is set by dials you can see and turn. There is no threading order to memorize.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 28px; align-items: center; margin: 26px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex: 0 1 260px; max-width: 260px;\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/5204\/6327\/files\/angelaloq23_5.jpg?v=1722088700\u0026amp;width=520\" alt=\"Angela Huffman sitting at the Tips Table on the set of Fons \u0026amp; Porter's Love of Quilting PBS show.\" width=\"520\" height=\"651\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto; border-radius: 12px; display: block;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 10px 0 0; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.45; color: #5a5a5a;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAngela Huffman, host of Fons \u0026amp; Porter's Love of Quilting PBS show and founder\/owner of Quilted Joy.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 320px; min-width: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\"\u003eThe Quilt Fairies and I sew on Baby Lock machines every week, and the Celebrate is the one we reach for when someone is finishing garment seams or quilt bindings for the first time.

They are tubular, with no exposed thread path and no guides to hook a thread around, which is why there is no order to get wrong. The needles have their own threading system: hold the threader in place and it takes the thread through for you.

The dials sit on the front where you can reach them.

Set it to gather and a sheer ruffle comes out evenly spaced down its whole length instead of bunching at one end. Set it the other way and a knit seam comes out flat instead of wavy. The fabric support system holds the stitch flat and balanced while it forms, with built-in stitch fingers that move along with the knife blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 26px; align-items: center; margin: 28px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 300px; min-width: 0;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/5204\/6327\/files\/BLS1_TubularLoop.webp?v=1775053935\u0026amp;width=900\u0026amp;height=600\u0026amp;crop=center\" alt=\"Close-up of the Baby Lock Celebrate serger with the front open, showing the tubular loopers, threading path and tension dials.\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto; border-radius: 12px; display: block;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 300px; min-width: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 0 0 8px;\"\u003eBuilt to stay in time\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003eThe looper drive system holds the loopers in alignment so they stay timed. Timing is the part of a serger that is expensive to put right once it drifts, and it is the difference between a machine you keep and a machine you replace. Vertical needle penetration sets the needles straight down rather than on a slant, so they are less likely to deflect and shove your fabric off line. Neither of these is something you notice on the first day. They are the reason a Celebrate is still sewing well in ten years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; flex-direction: row-reverse; gap: 26px; align-items: center; margin: 28px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 300px; min-width: 0;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/5204\/6327\/files\/BLS1_VertNeedle.webp?v=1775053935\u0026amp;width=900\u0026amp;height=600\u0026amp;crop=center\" alt=\"The Baby Lock Celebrate serger stitching blue patterned fabric with green thread.\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto; border-radius: 12px; display: block;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex: 1 1 300px; min-width: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 0 0 8px;\"\u003eSix millimeters of clearance and a light on the needle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0;\"\u003eThe presser foot lifts to 6mm, which is enough to get four layers of quilting cotton, terry or a lofty fleece under it without a fight.

One LED sits over the needle so the presser foot is not throwing a shadow across your stitching, and at 16 pounds the machine is light enough to move off the table when you need the space back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto;\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%;
