Step into a new realm of serging brilliance with the Baby Lock Applaud, where decorative artistry and technical power converge in one sleek, inspiring machine. The Applaud isn’t just a serger — it’s a stitch sculptor. From fashion-forward hems to home décor details that turn heads, this machine lets your creative voice shine loud and clear.
At the heart of the Applaud lies the Creative Top Cover Stitch, an exclusive Baby Lock innovation that stitches over the surface of your fabric with astonishing visual effect. Pair it with the dual wiper system, and you unlock dimensional, textured finishes rarely seen on typical garments. Whether you use both wipers or just one, the combinations are endless — and the results are uniquely yours.
With Automatic Thread Delivery (ATD), you’ll never fuss with tension again. The Applaud adjusts for you, giving you perfect results on every fabric, from silky knits to high-loft fleece. And thanks to ExtraordinAir® threading, even the looper path is a one-touch breeze.
From garment construction to decorative finishes, from cover hem to top cover stitch, the Applaud doesn’t just finish seams — it transforms them.
