Large quilts, detailed embroideries, or complex sewing projects can be completed comfortably – reliably, quietly, and precisely.

overview
The PFAFF creative performance 950 combines powerful sewing technology with state-of-the-art embroidery technology and digital connectivity. Designed for demanding sewing projects, quilts, and high-quality embroidery, this machine offers exceptional stability, high needle penetration power, and intelligent automatic functions.
At its heart is a generous 10.1-inch multi-touchscreen, allowing for intuitive control of all functions. Stitches, embroidery designs, and settings can be adjusted and combined directly on the machine. Thanks to the integrated Wi-Fi, designs and updates can be synchronized via the mySewnet cloud and shared between the machine, computer, and mobile devices.
With up to 1050 stitches per minute for embroidery and an exceptionally strong piercing force of around 150 Newtons, the machine sews even multiple layers of fabric or heavy materials reliably and precisely. The robust construction ensures low-vibration operation and clean results.
The original IDT system transports fabric simultaneously from the top and bottom, ensuring perfectly even seams regardless of the material. Sensors automatically detect when the dual feed can be used.
In embroidery mode, hundreds of integrated designs and extensive editing functions are available directly on the screen. Features such as precise positioning, automatic jump stitch cutters, and auto-save significantly simplify the workflow and ensure perfect results – even with large embroidery projects.
With over 750 sewing stitches, exclusive PFAFF stitch techniques, and numerous quilting and decorative stitches, the creative performance 950 opens up an enormous creative spectrum. Projects can be precisely planned, individually designed, and professionally executed.

Du suchst die beste Qualität, Freiarm und den besten Support? Dann bist du mit der Bernina B500 bei Make ma perfekt aufgehoben. Ich hatte vorab wirklich 1 Mio. Fragen, dass es mir schon fast peinlich war. Aber Marit hat alle Fragen vorab beantwortet. Ursprünglich wollte ich die Bernette B70 haben, aber die Vorteile vom Freiarm, die intuitive Bedienung machen die schöne Maschine für mich perfekt. Ich würde gerne mehr Sterne geben, weil ihr einfach sehr modern seid!! Davon können scih andere noch eine Scheibe abschneiden, so viel verstaubte Geschäfte da draußen.
Ich bin total happy mit der Brother Celeste Stickmaschine. Besonders die Zwei-Punkt-Positionierung ist für mich ein echtes Highlight – damit lässt sich das Motiv viel genauer platzieren, was im Alltag einfach super hilfreich ist.
Vor dem Kauf wurde ich vom Team von Makema.de richtig gut beraten. Alle meine Fragen wurden geduldig beantwortet, sodass ich ein sehr gutes Gefühl hatte. Am Ende habe ich die Maschine sogar direkt vor Ort abgeholt, weil ich das Schätzchen unbedingt sofort mitnehmen wollte.
Seit inzwischen 6 Wochen ist sie bei mir im Einsatz und ich bin immer noch begeistert: Sie stickt leise, schnell und sehr sauber. Für mich bisher eine richtig gute Entscheidung.
Die Brother F580 als kombinierte Näh- und Stickmaschine ist einfach genial. Sehr schnell umgebaut, einfach in der Bedienung und ein wirklich(!) sehr ruhiges Nähen. Super!
Nachdem ich von der Singer SE auf die Bernina gewechselt bin, hatte ich erst ein paar Bedenken. Aber jetzt möchte ich die Bernina nicht mehr missen! Bin super zufrieden!
