Baby Lock Aria BLAR Sewing and Quilting Machine
   When it comes time to set the stage for quilting success, I use the Baby Lock Aria quilting machine.  The Baby Lock Aria is packed with features powered by Baby Lock IQ Technology™.  That means you'll enjoy quick auto-adjustments and a hassle-free sewing experience.
     I can make elegant turns using the advanced pivoting feature, and the Digital Dual-Feed System helps me effortlessly stitch multiple layers of fabric. Plus, the extra-large work space gives me more room to compose bigger projects.  With so many user-friendly features, I might start making more than one quilt in a day! -- Eleanor Burns PBS Host of "Quilt in a Day"
