I have the Pfaff Creative 4.5 and after a rocky start have come to love it. Unfortunately have not had a lot of time to use it to its full extent. Bought the basic software for it and have not had time to play around with it. I have also bought some quilting designs to do in the hoop but again have not tried them out yet. I took a Craftsy class on modifying sweat shirts into jackets with embroidery and really enjoyed that. I also like doing in the hoop designs and have made numerous items such as bookmarks for simple gifts and embroidered crazy patch blocks from Molly Mine. I have a number of ith designs I have yet to try. I wish there were more hours in the day to allow for play with this machine. I will be watching this thread for ideas.
