Pfaff 1196

Pro: The Pfaff 1196 is a very sturdy and easy to use machine. I bought it used when I decided to try quilting 2 1/2 yrs ago. It's almost 8" throat allows me to quilt even a King-sized spread.

One of the favorite features is that the needle can be moved left or right to the smallest degree making it very easy to sew a "scant" 1/4" seam.

Con: There is no walking foot that will fit this model.

I will save up until I can get a Pfaff that has a wide throat and a walking foot! So I will be using this old dear Pfaff 1196 for a long time yet.
