I started out quilting on my Pfaff and learned quite a bit about free motion.

A machine that starts with 42 so it was manufactured in 2002. 30's - 1990's, 20's - 1980's. I'm not sure how far back it goes, though.<br /><br /><br />Apparently mine was made in 1974!<br />xxTiaraHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00448619418539423710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2766211193464475676.post-11344989296177749092013-07-15T14:44:00.925+02:002013-07-15T14:44:00.925+02:00Thank you so much for posting this Marelize! I jus...Thank you so much for posting this Marelize! I just love those and can't wait to try them. I didn't realize that you drew the circles on which I'm sure makes it much more accurate. I have a BabyLock Symphony and unfortunately it doesn't let you switch your stitch length down to zero otherwise I'd try it with the feed dogs up. I think the lowest setting I can do is .2 or .5. I'm afraid I'd mess up my machine trying to move my fabric around if it's not at zero.

I really enjoy seeing your quilting on IG, it's just fabulous! I have found that using my spool on a spool holder (but propped up on another spool so the thread is clear of the pin) has helped with tension, probably doing the same thing as I think it is dropping the top tension. Thanks again! Looking forward to seeing this quilt finished :) so pretty!Gemma@prettybobbinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06834959191835939339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2766211193464475676.post-37210839873012685182013-07-15T12:10:58.216+02:002013-07-15T12:10:58.216+02:00Great little video and if you think your machinger...Great little video and if you think your machingers are dirty then you really don't want to see mine! :)Chris Dodsley @made by ChrissieDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07850681754516767449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2766211193464475676.post-87703892647417977522013-07-15T09:26:06.146+02:002013-07-15T09:26:06.146+02:00Thank you so much for the video.

The two online quilt shops here in SA that I know sells them are: http://www.thequiltingbug.co.za/ and http://www.piedpiper.co.za/catalog/<br />From the moment I bought my first pair, I refuse to quilt without them, especially when quilting large quilts. The do make a huge difference and I would definitely recommend them. I bet you cant wait for your machine, I'm sure you're going to have a lot of fun!

I have taken the plunge and hubby has bought me a demo model Pfaff Quilt Expressions 4.0, I hope it makes quilting my quilts a more pleasurable experience. I have to wait until Sunday the 21st though :( that's when it's my birthday!Rene Sharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04801586989116803287noreply@blogger.com
