Pfaff Sewing Machines - A Review of the Pfaff Hobbylock

Robin OBrien
If your sewing projects call for a professional machine, you be interested in Pfaff Hobbylock overlock machines. With the ability to handles as many as 4 different threads, the possibilities are endless. It even has 15 built-in stitches, including stitches for trim, overcast, stitch, and embellish modes. And threading those needles is made easier by using color-coded thread paths to help you keep up with which thread goes where. Pfaff Hobbylock sergers are available in three popular styles, each one with options that lend it to specific creative tasks, from general purpose to heavy quilting, and all points in between.

For quilting, there is extra height available to the pressure foot, allowing even the thickest materials to be handled with precision. Add to that the adjustable stitch length, cutting width, and presser foot pressure, and you have a machine that is adept at handling most light to heavy industrial tasks, and excellent for turning a home office into a production area. The ability to use multiple presser feet means the machine is more adaptive to different tasks, and that in turn means you'll get more use out of it.

A Pfaff Hobbylock 2.0 suffers a bit in the speed department, when compared to the stitch speed of other Pfaff models. But even at only 1300 stitches per minute, Pfaff Hobbylock overlock machines are excellent for both quality and production speed. It is designed by sewing professionals for the use of sewing professionals. As the workhorse it was intended to be, the Hobbylock 2.0 stands head and shoulders above the competition.


The Pfaff Hobbylock 4764 uses a differential feed system to allow sewing perfect seams every time. Say goodbye to bunching and puckering along seams, because the differential feed means that problem is now a thing of the past. Feed can even be adjusted to accommodate many different type of fabric, giving you even more precision over the entire project. It's rubber feet mean it won't slip or slide around, keeping the machine stable while it is in use.

Whether you are a pro, or just want to sew like one, the Pfaff Hobbylock 4842 gives you the precision and performance that is only available with a Pfaff Hobbylock serger. For seams, hems, and even elastic and decorative edges, the Hobbylock 4842 has all of the functionality built into the 4764, with additional features that make lighter fabrics easier to work with on an industrial level. The only limit to what you can create with a Pfaff Hobbylock serger is what you are able to think of doing.
