Pfaff Fab-U-Motion with Creative 2.0

Advantages: Easy to install; solid construction; smooth and easy to operate.
Disadvantages: heavy. But this also is an indication of how solid it is.

I have an older Pfaff 1475, and I'd been wanting a machine with stitch regulator for a long time. Recently my local Pfaff dealer offered a special sale on a Creative 2.0 that included the Fab-U-Motion attachment. I purchased the Creative 2.0 and brought it home, along with its embroidery unit and the Fab-U-Motion, yesterday afternoon. This morning I used the Fab-U-Motion "Quick Start" guide to connect the Fab-U-Motion to the Creative 2.0, and finished ...
...progress. I *love* my Fab-U-Motion. It worked perfectly from the beginning, and makes qulting large projects *much* easier for me. Motion is smooth and even, and stitching much more even and attractive than I can do "freehand". It comes with a short paper "Quick Start" Guide, which I found adequate for getting started, and a CD that covers usage in more depth (that I hope to watch soon). ...

Janome Memorycraft 11000, Dreams and nightmares

Advantages: Solid, hardwearing, does it all.
Disadvantages: A very heavy machine, a lot of information to get to grips with

I have had this machine for a few months now. It has a totally mind boggling array of functions some of which are still eluding me. Instructions :- I was expecting to receive something the size of an encyclopaedia with this machine in order to explain all of its functions, however I was pleasantly surprised by the document that I did receive. It is well set out logical and easy to navigate, covering all applications. There are questions that I have ...
...is just a matter of time. The MC11000 also has built in instructional videos which help out with bobbin winding and the automatic needle threader amongst others. working with it. getting started There is very little to assemble and what there is is simply done which leaves you ready to start sewing. the simple functions are just that - simple, and in that respect it is an absolute joy to work with. The on screen displays alongside the booklet ...

Elna 5100

Advantages: Easy to use and good quality stitiching
Disadvantages: doesn't like cheap thread

I bought this as my old machine finally gave up the ghost & it's probably the best thing I've done in ages. I have problems buying clothes to fit, because I'm rubbish at dieting and therefore making my own is the best option. The first thing I made was a chiffon top which I would never have attempted on my old machine and it sewed it perfectly. I particularly liked the seam and overlock in one step stitch. The only problem that I have had with ...

While Not On Ciao, This Is Something Else I Do!

Advantages: Fantastic designs, features and very high quality.
Disadvantages: Not portable and heavy.

...house and after our last Brother gave up the go (It has lasted more than 8 years of hard labour!) so it was time to get a new one. Of course I resorted to the internet which most of us do now a days. We decided to stay with Brother as we knew the brand well and was very happy with our last eowing machine. However times had really changed since we bought out last machine. After doing a lot of comparison on the Brother website What Is It The Brother ...
...some very good freebies. Brother Direct - I felt it was a complete rip off at an incredible £308 which we felt was not a good price at all. You would expect it from the manufactorer to be cheaper than anywhere else but I was highly wrong. I would avoid as you just get the machine and have to pay extra for the accessory kits. Argos - I didn't realise until after some research that Argos sell this product. This was highly convient for us as the ...
