Look what I am getting!
Original IDTTM (Integrated Dual Feed) – absolutely even fabric feed from both the top and bottom. Fine fabrics, several layers – no slipping! Only Pfaff has the original IDTTM built into the machine.
• Only from Pfaff: German engineering and innovative design!
• Extra value! Purchase the ClassicStyle home 1529 and receive two extra presser feet that are must-haves for everyone who loves to sew for their home: the Welting Foot and the Twin Welting Foot.
• High presser foot clearance to make room for heavy fabrics or several layers of fabric!
• Free-motion sewing position! Use the special free-motion sewing position for the presser foot to get the highest clearance for your free-motion sewing.
• Constant needle piercing power even when you sew slowly, with thick fabrics or through several layers of fabric.
I decided not to go with the machines that have tons of built-in embroidery stitches and all kinds of computer stuff. Too much to go wrong! So I told the lady I am looking for a basic machine that goes forward, backward, zig-zag, and absolutly MUST HAVE a dual feed so I can do some machine quilting. She had just the machine for me! Pfaff 1529. I am ordering it today and it should be here within the week unless I decide to go to Salem and get it myself. It is just a 2 hour drive. Maybe I will do that...
Anyway, things are going pretty good here. We went to San Francisco where we learned that only 3 of the special surgeries that my unborn grandson needed had been done and not even one had lived through the surgery. So we were on the plane home the next morning. The baby will be born in October and have his first open-heart surgery within 10 days of birth. The second open heart surgery at 3 months old and the third one at 18 months to 3 or 4 years old. Then he will need a heart transplant sometime after that.
We had a fund raiser yesterday and made just over $2,000.00. We were stunned that we could make that much. We are very grateful! The kids can now pay some outstanding medical bills.
Anyway, that is all my news for now. Be expecting to see some real cool pictures soon of the things I am going to make with my new machine!!!!
Hugs!

I wish you a lot of fun with your fabulous Pfaff. (mine is almost 33 years old and still doing what I want it to do)
Bye,
Good luck with your new machine! If it were me I'd all ready be in the car on the way to Salem. I have no patience and I'd be dying to try it out. I can't wait to see what you make!!
Un saluto affettuoso dall'italia....

I am so glad to hear things seem to be okay for your little grandbaby to come into the world in October. He and you all are in my thoughts and prayers.
I have a Pfaff qult expression 2046 and I really love the IDT system. I agree that you don't use all the stitches. When I bought mine the current line you are buying was not out. I am sure you will love it and once you have the double transport system, you will never look back. Enjoy it!
I have been having east model of Paff for two years and goes very well.
I hope that everything goes well in the operations that they have to him to make your grandson.
An affectionate hug
I hope that you are enjoying your Pfaff 1529! I bought mine almost 2 years ago (after fleeing from Viking D1 and Platinum machines--no IDT)and love it. With the 1/4" foot, it makes the most accurate 1/4" seam for even the most complex quilt piecing.
Six months ago I bought a Bernina 440QE for the BSR for quilting and fancy stitches. While it quilts well, my Pfaff 1529 definitely out-sews it! Now I'm thinking of selling the 440QE and adding another Pfaff/IDT for fancy stitches. If anyone has a recommendation, please let me know. Thanks.
Enjoy!
