I bought a used Baby Lock Sophia last Christmas. I’m VERY happy with it so far - the only thing I’m having trouble with is getting a good, 1/4” seam allowance for straight stitching. The manual is very comprehensive, and I’ve had much success with my sewing projects.
I bought my machine awhile back and I bought it for the embroidery. I am a quilter but I have enjoyed the embroidery program. I have purchased a program to make quilt labels on it. If I can ever understand the program I am sure I will love it as the instructions aren’t very clear. I really needed a refresher on this machine as I have a Brother that I normally sew on. Thanks
Thanks so much!!! I brought Sofia2 a few years ago and I'm a beginner. I paid so much more (almost double😒) lol but I love Sofia2!!! I believe it's perfect esp. for a beginner. You have helped me so much🤗🤗🤗!!! Is there a easy way of making large fonts without changing to embroidery🤔??? Please keep talking about Sofia2😉, I would love to have move info!!! Thank you again, I really appreciate it!!! 🤗💖🤗💖🤗💖
The reason I watched your tutorial was I m trying to decide if I should buy this model I had a singer 9960. And I just sent it back because of all the problems I had with the tension. Now I back to researching machines
Out of all my machines the most dependable is my Juki F-600. It has never let me down, when it comes to dependability I would say Juki is probably one of the very best. I like my Babylock's because of the features, but they are definitely not as tough as the Juki. The sophia is great for the embroidery, and the thread cutter, but You can buy a brother model that is nearly identical for about half the price.
I actually ran that bit in fast forward to get through the embroidery a little quicker, I turned the sound off while it was in fast forward, I am glad you liked the video. :)
My machine l babylock sofia2 won't stitch any decorative stitches or alphabets. It only does the very basic stitches. Is that a mechanical or computer problem?
how do you raise and lower the feed dogs? I have misplaced my manual and cannot figure out how to do it and I accidentally lowered them, but don't know how I did it. Thank you for your help.
The switch is round back of the machine if you go into the video about 15 min and 30 seconds I raise the feed dogs back up, and you can see right where the switch is. :)
I can’t find a return button. Example - Handmade by (return) Donn Marie (return) & Natalie. (Return) June 2020. I want to do a simple label. I’m using the smallest font, just can’t find how to return for the next line.
