I have been exploring the 3 FMQ modes (Spring freemotion, Sensormatic freemotion and Dynamic spring foot 6D) of the machine. As you may have read, I had run into some difficulties. Apologies to non-Pfaff owners, as this will probably bore you to tears. However, there is very little around on the net about this and the manual is of no great help on this issue, so I thought this might be of use. Springloaded foot Open Sensormatic foot Dynamic 6D foot My Springloaded foot as well as the open Sensormatic FMQ foot were giving me trouble on the new machine. I had the machine since January and have been mainly using the new Dynamic 6D foot for FMQ which is fantastic. I have quilted two quilts with that and experienced no problems whatsoever. As this came as a bit of a surprise, I booked myself into a session at my local sewing shop. When I rang, the owner asked whether I had kept my sample of trying these modes...of course, I had not. So, I sat down one evening and produced another sample, this time going methodically through the FMQ modes of the machine. This was interesting as the owner of the shop had already hinted that the opening of the open toe feet might be the issue. Sample stitched with Aurifil 50/2 using a Microtex Sharp 70/10 From left to right: The Springloaded foot did not perform, even when I changed the pivot setting gradually down to -5 to hold the fabric in place. Had skipped stitches and thread breakage. Then did the closed Sensormatic foot (pivot height setting 0)... worked absolutely fine. Next came the open Sensormatic foot...did not work at all on a pivot of 0, but worked well on a pivot setting of -3. Did the Springloaded foot again on the Spring FMQ mode...this time at the slowest speed possible and pivot of -5. Worked ok, but there was the occasional skipped stitch. Very different to how this foot had performed on the previous Pfaff 4.0. Close up of Springloaded foot at pivot -5 Then got carried away again with the Dynamic 6D spring foot, which of course, was fine. Back to the open Sensormatic foot on a pivot of -3...again (not shown), no hassles. Changed over one more time to the closed Sensormatic foot on a pivot of 0 and this continued to produce a good result. This was a most valuable exercise... When at the shop, the technician confirmed that the openness of the Springloaded foot was the most likely cause of the problem, not holding the fabric down well enough with each stitch to catch the thread underneath. We talked about batting as my sample was stitched on a fairly thin batting (mixture of polyester and cotton, I believe). He also suggested to use the Dynamic spring foot 6D mode for this open foot...I did, and the problem of skipping stitches and thread breakage disappeared at the shop...mind you, there I used a sample of wool batting. So, in order to use the Springloaded foot in the Spring foot freemotion setting I will have to reduce the pivot height to -5 and go very, very slow, or use the Dynamic spring foot 6D mode with that foot. Hope this made sense. Linking up to Let's Bee Social at Sew Fresh Quilts Karin

Welcome to Week 1 of my PFAFF Tutorial Tuesday. Each week, I'll be showing new features of my PFAFF quilt expression 4.0 sewing machine. The purpose of these tutorials is to familiarize ourselves (self-included!) with the numerous features of this machine. In this first tutorial, I will show you a few features of my machine that made my decision in choosing this model a no-brainer. 1. I wanted a machine with a large throat space for quilting because this year I plan to teach myself how to machine quilt. The PFAFF quilt expression 4.0 has a throat space of approx. 10" between the needle on the left, and the wall on the right. Additionally, the space has a height of approx. 4 1/4". This offers an abundance of space compared to a standard sewing machine. 2. The next exciting benefit of this machine is the trademarked PFAFF IDT, or, Integrated Dual Feed. IDT is an optional feature that is extremely easy to use. See the black "arm" that sits behind the needle? Be sure to have your presser foot raised, then simply press the IDT arm down and forward toward your presser foot to engage: To release the IDT, pull the shaft down . . . . . . and back to disengage: The IDT is a feature commonly found on industrial machines. It allows an even feed of fabric from both the top and bottom. In other words, it is like a locking mechanism that allows your presser foot and top fabric to stay in simultaneous motion with your feed dogs and bottom fabric. Why is this so beneficial? Well, it allows you to sew two pieces of fabric together evenly and without shifting (using any type of fabric!) alleviating puckering, and allowing for a smooth, perfect seam. 3. The 3rd feature I'd like to point out is the amount of light provided at both the needle and on the sewing deck. These lights are bright and illuminate the entire sewing area. You can even replace them yourself! Purchase bulbs from your authorized PFAFF dealer, then use the light bulb remover as instructed under the Maintenance section of your owner's manual to pull out the old and replace with the new. 4. Automatic thread snips are included with the touch of a button. Directly to the left of the display screen on the front of the machine, you'll see an image of a pair of scissors. When you are finished sewing, press the scissors button to cut the top and bobbin threads. The presser foot and needle will automatically raise when finished so you can easily remove your project. 5. Needle down/up. Pressing the button with the image of a needle in the down-position will illuminate the light to the left of the button . . . . . . and drop your needle and presser foot down onto your project. I like using this feature because when you stop sewing, the needle will stop in the down position and holds your project in place while the presser foot automatically raises slightly in case you need to check something. I recently used this feature while adding binding. It came in handy when I got to the corners where I had to pivot the project to continue sewing the next side of the binding in place. Note: You can always tap the foot control to raise or lower the needle. Tune-in next week when we tackle the rest of the buttons in this first section of the sewing machine face and talk about the presser feet and how to get the perfect quarter-inch seam! Please be sure to ask any questions you may have and I'll address them in an upcoming blog.

So your machine is humming along and all of a sudden you're out of bobbin thread. Dang it! Why now, when I'm in the middle of chain piecing 40 half-square triangle units?! Here's your solution: You no longer have to unthread your machine to rewind a new bobbin (sweet!). Pull your bobbin out of the bobbin case. Be sure the PFAFF logo remains on top. You'll also see in the background that I have the universal foot on . . . a plastic foot. The PFAFF manual asks that you use a metal foot when filling an empty bobbin the way I'm about to show you, so I selected the 1/4" foot (any metal foot will do). Pull the spool thread off to the right side (By the way, I'm using Aurifil 50 wt. 100% cotton thread. It's thin, extraordinarily strong, and amazing!) . . . Oh, and be sure your presser foot and needle are raised. Maneuvering a camera while performing this task can be challenging, but with your left hand, you'll want to guide the thread so that it doesn't leave the stability of the foot (i.e., slip out the front). Pull the thread up the left-hand opening of the face of your machine. Thread it through the first thread guide. Then, thread it through the second thread guide. Double-check that the PFAFF logo is facing up and bring the thread through the opening on the top of your bobbin. Place your bobbin on the bobbin winding shaft. After I do this, I like to roll the piece of thread I brought through the tip of the bobbin with the thread that connects to the spool to give it some security. Keeping the "rolled" threads between my fingers, I push the bobbin shaft to the right. I like to hang onto the rolled threads as I press the foot pedal. Hang on until its gone through a few rotations on the bobbin to secure the end. A quick glance down to the faceplate, and you'll see that the thread is perfectly secure (and still in the eye of the needle!). The screen also shows that your bobbin is winding perfectly. In a very short time, your bobbin is wound. The bulkiness of the camera didn't allow me to capture this, but you can use the thread cutter to the left of the bobbin to cut the thread and remove the bobbin by first moving the shaft back to the left, then simply pull the bobbin up and off. Pull the thread out from the thread guides. Pull the thread down and out of the face of your machine. Trim the thread, then pull it off to the back and left. Insert your bobbin. Pull the thread through the guides and pull the long end of your thread through the trimmer. Replace your bobbin plate and you're ready to roll. So now we're on to feature number 2 I'd like to share with you today . . . "How do I move the needle?" and "Why would I want to move my needle?" Before we tackle those questions, I wanted to make a comment on the programmed stitch length when you turn your machine on. A glance at the screen and you'll see that its 2.5. Personally, I like to stitch with a 2.0 stitch length. To change your stitch length, simply use the "-" and "+" buttons on the second row to the right of the screen. In the future, when I begin to teach myself how to free-motion quilt (hopefully, in September . . . hope you'll join me), I'll be using a longer stitch length. About 2 months ago, I was working on a project where I was inserting cording into a seam. Due to time constraints, I was working with what I had on-hand. I attached the Universal foot and found that if I use the top "-" and "+" buttons, I could move the needle either to the left or to the right. The screen starts at "0.00". To move the needle to the right, press the right "+" button. Pressing once will give you a miniscule .3 move to the right. But it will go up to a 4.5. Perfect for sewing covered cording into the pillow I was making. I do believe there is a special foot available for this procedure. However, when I'm on a mission, I just want to get it done. :) As mentioned, depressing the "-" will allow you to move the needle to the farthest left-side of your Universal foot. See? Thanks for hanging out with me. Please comment. Let me know if this was helpful or not. I will be continuing my tutorials next week. I hope you're enjoying your summer. Have a great week!

Pfaff Standard Presser Foot 820250096 ( 1 ) 6 mm The General Purpose foot is also called a straight stitch foot or a standard foot. This foot generally comes with all sewing machines and is therefore considered standard to all machines. The General Purpose foot is the most versatile of all presser feet because it can be used in such a wide variety of stitches. The General Purpose foot is used for general garment sewing and is more specifically used to finish seams, hems, and for topstitching. This foot can also be used for patchwork, decorative stitching, smocking and fagoting. This foot can also be used with zigzag stitches and stretch stitches. The General Purpose foot is easily changed by snapping on or off.

Wonderful decorative embellishments are easy with this special foot. You can sew up to 9 different lengths of embroidery floss, pearl cotton or high sheen threads in place with your choice of a decorative or utility stitch. The multi-cord foot is used to sew down several small cords (such as elastic or silk thread) at once with a wide or decorative stitch. This foot has a series of holes in front of the needle opening to feed the cord through avoiding slipping or tangling as you sew Pfaff 7/9 Hole Cord Presser Foot for IDT System # 820608096 # 802222096
