Baby Lock Meridian Embroidery Machine

The Baby Lock Meridian is a spacious, embroidery-only machine built for big, perfectly placed designs. With a generous 9.5" × 14" embroidery field, 11.25" of workspace to the right of the needle, and Baby Lock IQ Technology® features like IQ Intuition Positioning® and IQ Designer, it makes accurate placement and custom design creation feel easy.

Wirelessly send designs from your computer or compatible software, preview placement right over your hooped fabric, and use the Needle Beam and on-screen editing tools to fine-tune every stitch, color, and combination before you press start.

IQ Intuition Positioning® App

Take a photo of your hooped fabric with the IQ Intuition Positioning® App and send it wirelessly to Meridian. Your fabric appears on screen in lifelike color so you can drag, rotate, and place designs exactly where you want them.

9.5" × 14" Embroidery Field

Stitch big, bold designs with fewer rehoops. The 9.5" × 14" field and 11.25" of workspace to the right of the needle are ideal for quilt blocks, jacket backs, tote bags, and in-the-hoop projects.

IQ Designer – Turn Art into Stitches

Draw right on the screen, import line art by USB, or send artwork from a smart device, then let IQ Designer convert shapes into fills, outlines, and decorative lines for custom embroidery without extra software.

Wireless Design Transfer

Built-in Wi-Fi works with Design Database Transfer so you can send designs directly from your computer to the Meridian, or integrate with Palette (v11+, sold separately) for even more creative control.

Color Visualizer

Audition different thread palettes before you stitch. Choose vivid, soft, gradient, or random color sets and let the Color Visualizer suggest combinations you can preview and save.

A bright LED Needle Beam on the embroidery foot shows exactly where the needle will land, making it easy to align borders, place monograms, and hit precise points on quilt blocks and garments.
