I LOVE MY PFAFF!!!! I started sewing on my grandmother's singer at the age of 9, bought an Elna (used for 30 years still keep it 'cause it's a workhorse and my backup machine). Bought another Elna (Quilter's Dream) but that machine couldn't keep up to the amount of sewing I do (and couldn't sew fast enough) so I purchased a used Pfaff 1475 and absolutely love it. I never knew sewing could be this easy and fun!!! Love it! :lol:
