A passion for sewing reveals ones true self. Beautiful fabrics that inspire your imagination to run free. Creations that show a love of detail and desire to achieve professional-looking results. You need a sewing machine that delights you – one that offers room for new ideas and possibilities.
The sewing area to the right of the needle is supersized for sewing large amounts of fabric or batting. Optimized feeding provides more control when sewing through thick layers or seaming small pieces. Sew your seam and the PFAFF Performance 5.2 sewing machine will remember the seam length to repeat over and over, thanks to the Patchwork Program. This and a lot more is all waiting for you.

The time-tested PFAFF Original IDT System and a highly developed sensor technology guarantee the optimal feed you expect, on all kinds of fabrics. Everything stays in place. Lightweight and silky fabrics don‘t pucker; stripes and plaids match perfectly; curved seams are easy, with very little pinning required. The Original IDT™ System is exceptional for gras-ping and feeding small fabric pieces, for maximum precision and professional results. Your PFAFF performance 5.2 sewing machine moves from a single layer to multiple layers effortlessly and even sews over bulky seams with no hesitation.
