This beautiful Pfaff 332 has already found its forever home!
We're proud to have played a part in continuing its useful life.
I'm on a roll with those rolls...

Head on over to Bolt Fabric Boutique and see 'em in person!
Habe sie gereinigt und gewartet. Sie ist sehr hübsch und scheint nie benutzt worden zu sein. Nach meinen Nähversuchen weiß ich auch warum nicht. 😬 Ich habe sie Marfuschka - Seelchen! getauft. Sie hat viel, sehr viel Charakter - aber ich bin störrisch. 😅

“Hunched over a #SewingMachine, Kil Bae is #hemming a dress inside his Manhattan tailor shop when a new #customer
stops by with a vintage Tommy Hilfiger jacket he wants taken in.
The modeling agent paid $20 at a thrift store for his reversible bomber style that’s plaid on one side and red on the other. He’s willing to spend $280 to have it slimmed down. #Alteration requests with such a price disparity would have seemed odd a few years ago, the #tailor says, but are helping to keep the #bobbins bobbing at his one-man shop, 85 Custom Tailor.“

The ranks of tailors, dressmakers and custom sewers are shrinking in the U.S. even as their skills and services are finding fresh demand. Fashion industry experts say younger shoppers are enlisting tailors and seamstresses to give off-the-rack purchases a custom fit, to revive secondhand finds or to extend the lives of their wardrobes. A veteran tailor in New York says weight-loss drugs like Zepbound and Wegovy have more Americans wanting their clothes resized. But there are fewer professionals doing alternations as skilled sewers age out of the workforce. The Fashion Institute of Technology in New York has teamed with Nordstrom to launch a training program to help address the growing labor shortage.
Contrary to this instruction in an old Pfaff service manual, we will not be dousing any machine in any amount of kerosene.
