The worlds one and only Sashiko machine by Baby Lock. Unique in design and innovation creating fantastic high quality hand sewn style sewing with a machine.
A Single thread in the bobbin case no top thread required. The Babylock Sashiko will sew beautifully and precisely ensuring only every other stitch appears on the right side of the fabric.
The history of Sashiko is similar to that of the old traditional British Gansey, where a fisherman's origin could be identified from the clothes he was wearing. Such is the same principal of Sashiko which means "Rice Stitch" where various villages had their own Sashiko design usually in indigo.
Today we use the Baby Lock Sashiko to sew perfectly sewn, evenly spaced stitching on all our quilts. The stitches appear as if they have been sewing by hand, yet all stitching is sewn by machine thanks to Baby Lock.
The Baby Lock Sashiko is unique and has no top thread, it only uses thread from the spool under the sewing bed. It can be accessed via the swing out flap giving good access to threading. Our video shows threading at the 14 min mark.
The Specialist needle has an open eye which is closed every other stitch and when it enters the fabric open it comes back up with the thread, stitches a stitch and simultaneously drops the thread to skip the next. The stitches can be adjusted anywhere between 2 mm and 5 mm this relates to the length of the stitch itself or the gap size between stitches. This allows you to create perfectly measured Sashiko designs time and time again. With a huge 230 mm throat space you can easily quilt with the Baby lock Sashiko.
