I have a Pfaff

 When I started teaching Home Economics way back in 1980 I dreamed of being lucky enough to own a Pfaff. Well this year it’s my early Christmas present. I know there are many good machines out there but after some testing I decided on the Pfaff Quilt Expressions 720. I hope I have made the right decision. It’s a beautiful machine.  

Every year our family and the in laws go to Movie World’s White Christmas. We’ve been going for 10  years now. Each year  a Christmas fabric is chosen and we get sewing. Everyone has an out fit using the fabric . A new one every year of course. This year this is it. The new machines first project. I do very little dressmaking now so it’s not my favourite sewing genre any more. I once made everything we all wore including men’s trousers , I must have been crazy. It’s hardly worth dressmaking these days.

This was last years
This was last years outfit.
In laws and outlaws together as one big family.. so fortunate.
And 2023 …you get the idea

This is such a fun family tradition. I can’t wait to see you all dressed up. I’m sure you will have many happy hours using your new machine.
