I finally found something in my budget that I really want, so she's mine. Hahahaha, mine all mine!

Yay! Have fun with your new toy
|
Can't tell from the picture but if it is a 1471 model - I have the same machine and I love it.
|
I used to have a 1473 which I, too, loved, but then when I got a 7570, I gave my 1473 to a dear friend and she now loves it. She has had it for 5 or 6 years now, and does still love it. It's a good machine.

My Pfaff Expression 2.0 turned 1 year old this month and it's the best investment I've made. After having a Singer for the last 10 years, which I loved, but the feed dogs didn't drop and the Pfaff has a lot of other nice quilting features. The Singer was more of a "sewing" machine. Good luck with your Pfaff. I'm sure you'll love it. Can't wait to see your first project.

haha, already broke her in on a doll quilt! hehe!

She is gorgeous! I love my Pfaff, there's nothing like the dual feed for piecing quilts. ENJOY!
|
Oh my, that looks like fun. Enjoy!
|
Congratulations!
|
this is a great machine enjoy it!!!!!
|
I also have a 1471 bought in 1986 and I still use it nearly every time I sew. It is the best machine and is a workhorse, will sew over any thick fabric, love the built in walking foot.
|
What a beauty, happy sewing with her.
|
I love my Pfaffs. The IDT is wondrous. I'm sure you'll have a long and happy sewing life together,

Annie Enjoy!! |
I have had a Pfaff for almost 20 years. Love it. Yours looks almost identical to one my friend has. Enjoy!
|
Enjoy your new toy and have fun with your new toy.....
|
Congrats on your new Pfaff. I have had Pfaff machines for years and they are my favorite. Love the dual feed.
|
I own one of these machines too. (along with the other 13 sewing machines in the house) This machine is a great machine and I use it the most even though I own an Ellegante.
|
Congratulations on your new find. May the relationship be a fun one.
|
I am a big Pfaff fan--congrats on your new friend!
|
I inherited my Pfaff 1471 from my sister. I never sewed before. But I am addicted now. I love this sewing machine. I've gone to many quilt shows and taken classes using new machines of many different brands. But I much prefer my little work horse Pfaff 1471.
|
I too am a huge Pfaff fan, I am down to just 6 from 9 Pfaffs I have owned over the years, nothing else really does it for me, they are really great machines! Hope you have many happy years with your new workhorse. Happy stitching!!
|
I have one of those, I think. I bought mine new about 25 years ago. It was the best machine. I never had to have it repaired once with about 20 years of use.
|
I own 2 Pfaff 1471's. Went to a quilt retreat last month and took both. The one I started using decided to malfunction and would only sew forward in a straight line. I didn't take my book along so when I got home I looked up in the "troubleshooting" section and found what to do to reset it and WHOOPIE! it works just like new again. Was really thankful that I had bought both along so I was still able to sew.
Congratulations on your find. You will love it and they seem to run forever. Actually I bought the 2nd one so I could have another project going w/o having to change thread or feet:))) |
Congratulations. Enjoy your Pfaff sewing machine. It's on my wish list.
|
I had this machine for many, many years until it finally gave up the ghost and could not be repaired. It sewed anything and everything. I have had many brands of machines over the years and currently have a Bernina which is great but this Pfaff was truely the best machine I have ever used. I hope you enjoy it and find it to be the long serving workhorse mine was. Coincidently I just went today to look at purchasing a second machine and the one I'm considering is a Pfaff due totally to my fond memories of this one.

Just wonderful, enjoy and thank you for sharing
Have a Blessed day Ellen |
