I'd love to get a Creative Vision but can't right now.

All I want now is to find an affordable featherweight for when my hands deteriorate more ... which they are doing.

My pfaff machine is the best machine I have ever had.. I don't buy a new machine often.. this will no doubt be my last new machine.
I just finished making my first 'Bow Tuck' bag.. and I love how easy it was to do the quilting for the bag.. it was a joy to sew today.. I sat there all day.. what a fun day I had.. I don't get to do that often and it makes me so happy when I can..
A beautiful new Pfaff and a whole day of sewing.. must be heaven!

My previous machine was a Bernina 830.. That sweet machine has sewn everything I put under the foot.. I love that old machine and will never give it up.. but let me tell you, this new Pfaff is the most wonderful thing in my life next to my DH and my grandchildren!! I love a Pfaff!

At my first quilting class, I found out that my Singer machine was broken. The instructor was great and she let me use her spare Pfaff that she brings just in case anyone needs it. Wow! I completely fell in love with the IDT concept and Pfaffs in general. I'm now saving for one of my own. I have our local sewing machine repair person looking for a gently used or refurbished one.
Seriously, it sews like butter!!

Judy,
Austin Sewing has a Round Rock location but I go to the south store where I take my embroidery classes. They are always having nice used ones and they are serviced before but out on the floor to sell. You also get lessons on how to use it.

Do you like the older, heavy mechanical Pfaffs? The south store has a Pfaff 1222 for sale or did the last time I was in the store. It came out about 10 years or so after my Pfaff 262 which came out in 1968. The 262 is the one you see in my ID picture. They also had a Pfaff 2144 embroidery machine for sale which a lot of the 2144's have been upgraded to 2170's, which is what I have. I like having an embroidery Pfaff which is computerized and then my old heavy duty tanker right next to it. I can multi-task! I think they are asking $300 for the Pfaff 1222.
