Its is the machine of the classes. The Pfaff Passport 3.0 is slightly smaller and a little lighter making it ideal to take to the sewing class or workshop. It is fully computerised and can handle quilt making in its stride. Whats more it incorporates the unique IDT feed system making for perfect fabric control. Electronic speed controller means smooth powerful stitches no matter what the material thickness. Use the foot control or use the slider to adjust its maximum speed for free-motion work.

Other functions include start/stop at the touch of a button. In fact all 100 stitches can be chosen at a touch. The stitch number is displayed on-screen and the pull out stitch reference guide is a handy addition, it saves looking for the instruction book when you want to view all its stitches at a glance. It cleverly pushes away into the machine body.

As well as the usual buttonholes which are automatic and included fashion keyhole types, the Pfaff Passport can also sew on buttons. It includes the unique hand sewn quilt stitch and other specialist quilting stitches. Plus block and decorative, utility functions and the lovely Greek key stitch.

The whole machine feels powerful to use. Needle up/down button. Electronic reverse without having to keep your finger on the button. Tie off function at the start and end of a seam.

But what i really like about this machine is the stainless steel sewing bed, it covers the full length of the bed. It is really made to last years and years. Pfaff have thought of everything, even a place to store the foot control when not been used. It lives in a pocket inside the hard protective cover.
