Take a look at the new PFAFF® admire™ 3000 that just arrived at our store!

I had ONE goal with this video: get it posted before the baby was born. 😂

Well… baby is now 3 months old, so clearly that went according to plan. 🤣

This is my FIRST serger (eeeek!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼), and I was recommended the PFAFF® admire™ 3000 as a great starter machine. It has 16 stitches, Precise Thread Control, high-speed sewing, and lots of features to help you get professional-looking finishes without making things overly complicated!

I often hear that threading a serger is the most intimidating part (me included 😅), BUT I was promised this one is easy to thread. So stay tuned—I’ll film myself threading it for the VERY first time, and we’ll see how long it actually takes! 😂
