The Baby Lock Altair is a combination sewing and embroidery machine aimed at serious hobbyists and small embroidery businesses. It pairs a 9-1/2" by 14" embroidery field with a wide 11-1/4" sewing workspace, 494 built-in embroidery designs and 771 stitch options. IQ Technology lets you send designs wirelessly from a phone or tablet through the IQ Intuition Positioning app, and a 10.1" LCD touch screen and needle beam help with placement. It has since been replaced by the Altair 2, so it is best seen as a capable previous-generation flagship rather than the current model.

The Baby Lock Altair is a combination sewing and embroidery machine for embroidering, quilting and crafting. A 10.1" LCD touchscreen, the same size as a tablet, controls stitches, embroidery designs, placements, colors and more. This machine has been upgraded to Altair 2.
It has 771 stitch patterns, which can be combined and saved for later. The 494 built-in embroidery designs include 200 exclusive Baby Lock designs, and the library shows large thumbnails. Embroidery editing functions include character spacing, mirror imaging, design duplication and pattern rotation. A color visualizer previews designs in a range of colors.
The machine has built-in wireless capability. Designs can be sent from embroidery software such as Palette (version 11 or higher, sold separately). The free IQ Intuition Positioning App takes photos of fabric in a special hoop and sends them wirelessly to the machine. The image shows on screen for placing a design. The included embroidery foot has a needle beam with an LED pointer that shows where the needle will land.
