Default Pfaff free-motion quilting

First of all, I don't use a Pfaff, so NAYY here. I just saw a little
blog entry (video format) that could help some of you who do free-motion
quilting on a Pfaff and would like extra visibility. If that interests
you, go to http://patsythompsondesigns.com/index.php/archives/852 and
watch the video that Patsy Thompson (who does *gorgeous* machine
quilting) has prepared.

Again, NAYY -- I use a Bernina. G I just thought someone here might
find this useful.

Thanks Sandy! I would buy one tomorrow if we still had a Pfaff dealer
in town. Wow, that's an amazing piece of equipment. And yes, she does
quilt beautifully. I bet the underside of her feathers is just as good
as the top.

Thank you, Sandy. I enjoyed watching the video. The sound is off on my
computer - we cleaned it and must have hooked the sound up wrong. Maybe we
didn't hook it up at all. It was a joy to watch her glide through feathers.
Didn't she make it look easy? Polly

Sheesh, you're right about her quilting. Incredible. I'm trying very
hard not to hate her. That is a nifty little invention and I can see
how it would really help.

I use a Pfaff (7570) for most of my FMQ, but I don't use the Pfaff
darning feet. I prefer the Big Foot from Lynne Graves. Partly for
visibility and partly because I can completely lower my presser foot and
don't have to use that "park" position. But, I'm still going to buy one
of these ankles because I'm a tool junkie and have to try everything.
More later.

Thanks for posting the video link, Sandy. I have sent an email
requesting purchase information and international shipping. The ankle
isn't shown on the website (Bill's sewing machine company) so I hope
that I will have a reply later today - I will post the answer. Such a
simple idea and solution to a visual aid for the pfaff. jennellh

The cost (including US shipping) is $43.

Roberta (and anyone else who wants to know), they ship UPS and will
ship internationally. She was not sure of the price for that but will
find out. I now have the personal e-mail of the woman who does the
shipping and will be glad to e-mail it to anyone who would like to
contact her.

Thnaks for the link Sandy, this should make my Pfaff even more
wonderful to use for FMQ.

I don't have any Pfaff's but went over to take a look too. I too was
pretty amazed at how she just so easily did those feathers. I am
sure I need more practice.
Sunny, looks like the thing is sold just by that one guy. Give him a
call and I bet he'd gladly sell and ship you one.
Thanks Sandy for posting the link.
