PFAFF® creative icon™ 3

Designed using direct feedback from dealers and customers, the creative icon™ 3 combines advanced technology, expanded creative capabilities, and premium convenience features into one extraordinary machine.

What's New?
Free-Arm Embroidery- With Free-Arm Embroidery, it is easier than ever to personalize ready-made items. Embroider on tubular pieces such as baby clothes, bags, and pillowcases without having to take the seams apart.
Quick Quilt Settings with Bobbin Pick-Up- Quilting in embroidery often requires multiple adjustments for a clean look on both sides. With this new feature, all the settings are done for you. The machine turns off ActiveStitch Technology, increases thread tension, turns off automatic thread cut and activates the new bobbin pickup feature.
Enhanced Stitch Creator- Design unique stitches up to 44mm wide! Or, edit the machine's built in stitches. Maxi just got Maxier! Adjust stitch length and width, reshape stitch patterns, or create decorative stitches with complete control.
Fabric Selection- Set the type of fabric you are sewing and the machine automatically adjusts to the optimal settings for your chosen fabric, technique and stitch.
Exact Positioning with SCALING- Adjust your design's position and rotation with stitch point accuracy, reducing the time and effort spent achieving perfect hooping. If any elements extend beyond the hoop limits, the enhanced Exact Position feature allows you to easily scale the design to fit. Scaling also makes final design parts fit easily when multi-hooping.

Expanded Embroidery Possibilities
Customers upgrading from the creative icon™ 2 will immediately notice exciting new embroidery capabilities, including a redesigned embroidery unit and access to one of the largest embroidery areas available on the market. With the optional creative™ Grand Turnable Hoop, users can embroider up to an incredible 450mm x 450mm area, opening the door for larger designs, quilt blocks, jackets, home décor, and statement embroidery projects.
The creative icon™ 3 also introduces free-arm embroidery, allowing users to personalize ready-made items such as:
- Bags
- Baby clothes
- Sleeves
- Pillowcases
- Garments and accessories
…all without needing to open seams or disassemble projects.
