This is my review of the Pfaff Quilt Expression 720. I've been using this sewing machine as my primary machine for the past 8 months.
As I stated in the video I am NOT a sewing machine expert so please consider this video the same as getting an opinion on a machine from a quilting friend which is all I can offer.
If you want to see the FIRST VIDEO about my Bernina that was mentioned often in this video, it's here:
