The Baby Lock Accolade is both a serger and a coverstitch machine in one. Not only can you combine fabrics with the serger, you can hem them with the coverstitch. The Baby Lock Accolade can combine chain and overlock stitches to form stitches with up to eight threads. ExtraordinAir® threading takes your thread through all three loopers at once, instantly, with a gust of air. Plus, Accolade’s presser foot features a 6mm height that makes serging on thicker fabrics a breeze.
