I wouldn't be without a Pfaff machine!!! I just upgraded to the Quilt Expression 4.0 and gave my 2044 to my daughter who is just getting into quilting and was having horrible issues with my old l970 Sears Kenmore machine!!
I absolutely LOVE the new 4.0 machine!!! And YES....absolutely YES on using the walking foot (built in on the Pfaffs). Quilting has taken on new meaning since I started quilting on a Pfaff!!
