Crescendo

 
The Crescendo deluxe sewing and quilting machine is sure to make your next composition a masterpiece. Innovative features powered by Baby Lock IQ Technology™ add to a luxurious sewing and quilting experience.

IQ Technology is what makes Baby Lock machines so smart and efficient. You tell the Baby Lock Crescendo what you want to accomplish and IQ Technology works with the "brain" of the machine to achieve your desired results. Look for the IQ icon next to descriptions of these easy-to-use features.

The Crescendo also has the largest workspace of any machine in the Baby Lock sewing line, making it the perfect accompaniment to creativity of all sizes.

Features

Sensor Pen for Sewing
Use the Sensor Pen to tell your machine exactly where you want your needle and stitches positioned. You can use the pen to designate stitch width, placement, and a stopping point on your fabric.

Guide Beam for Sewing
Pave your stitching path with a beam of light. The Guide Beam makes continuous stitching easy to keep straight.

Digital Dual-Feed System
Pave your stitching path with a beam of light. The Guide Beam makes continuous stitching easy to keep straight.

Color LCD Touch Screen
Clearly see the details of every stitch on the large, color LCD. The screen measures 7" diagonally and shows up to 260,000 colors for a bold vivid display of your chosen stitches, machine settings and more.

Larger Throat Space
Comfortably quilt with the Crescendo's large throat space. 11.25" to the right of the needle leaves room for thick projects and bulky quilts.
Enhanced Stadium Lighting
Your fabric is illuminated 10 inches around the needle, so you'll clearly see every detail of your project. Plus, you won’t have to worry about changing bulbs with these long-lasting bright lights.

NeverMiss™ Automatic Needle Threader
The NeverMiss Automatic Needle Threader does exactly what it promises. It's never been this fast or easy - the Crescendo threads your needle with little more than the push of a button.
Push-Button Features
Convenient push-button features give you more freedom to focus on your project. Raise and lower the needle or presser foot, cut threads, reinforce stitches and thread your needle with the push of a button.
Quilting Extension Table
Expand your workspace with the quilting extension table. It securely fits on your Baby Lock Crescendo so you maintain a smooth quilting surface.
Quick-Set, Drop-in Bobbin
Use the automatic bobbin winder to prep your bobbins. When you're ready to sew simply drop one in; the Crescendo does the rest.
