Pfaff Creative Icon 2 Sewing and Embroidery Machine - Purple Aurora

The Pfaff Creative Icon 2 is a sewing and embroidery machine for embroiderers who want a very large hoop and a big sewing space in one machine. It embroiders up to 360 x 350 mm in the included Grand Dream Hoop, gives you 12.1 inches to the right of the needle, and projects stitches and designs onto your fabric so you can check placement before you sew. Purple Aurora is the purple finish Pfaff shows in its launch video for this machine.

Why buy from Imagine Sewing & Vacuum

• Authorized Pfaff dealer. Pfaff only honors its warranty on machines bought from authorized dealers, so your Creative Icon 2 is covered by Pfaff's 20-year limited warranty.
• Sewing specialists since 1922. We've helped sewists and embroiderers choose the right machine for more than a century.
• Factory-trained technicians. The people who service Pfaff machines can help with hooping, projector setup and WiFi questions, before and after you buy.
• Free shipping on orders over $299. This machine qualifies.

Large-format embroidery with on-fabric guidance

• Stitch big designs in one hooping. Four hoops are included, up to the creative Grand Dream Hoop (360 x 350 mm), which Pfaff calls the largest machine embroidery hoop on the market.
• See it on the fabric first. The built-in projector shows a stitch preview, grids and guidelines while you sew, and projects the embroidery onto your hooped fabric for placement.
• Line designs up with what's already there. Precise Positioning fine-tunes placement, and Scan Hoop puts an image of your hooped fabric behind the design on screen.
• The machine checks your foot. Presser foot recognition tells you if the attached foot doesn't suit the stitch you picked.
• Room for quilts and big projects. You get 12.1 inches (310 mm) to the right of the needle and a 10.1-inch touchscreen.
• Layers that feed together. Pfaff's Enhanced Original IDT dual feed moves fabric from the top and bottom, and ActivStitch sensors regulate the thread so stitches look good on both sides.
• Stitches and designs to start with. More than 800 stitches, including floating, radiant, ribbon, lace edge and stacking techniques, plus 873 embroidery designs and 8 embroidery fonts.
• Connected and updatable. WiFi links the machine to the mySewnet cloud for designs, and firmware updates arrive automatically.

Is the Creative Icon 2 right for you?

It's the best fit if you embroider large designs such as quilt blocks, jacket backs or home decor and also want a full-size sewing machine with dual feed.

Good to know before you buy: the creative Embellishment Attachment for ribbon, beads and yarn is sold separately. Pfaff introduced the Creative Icon 3 in 2026 and still lists the Creative Icon 2. The machine weighs about 31 pounds plus a 9-pound embroidery unit.

• Don't need embroidery? The Pfaff Performance Icon is a sewing and quilting machine with 12.2 inches of space, the same 10.1-inch screen, ActivStitch and IDT.
• Don't need the Grand Dream Hoop? The Pfaff Creative Performance 950 has 12.1 inches of space and ActivStitch, and includes hoops up to 360 x 260 mm.
• Want a laser sewing guide in a more compact machine? The Pfaff Creative Expression 750 has 9.8 inches of space, an 8-inch screen and hoop scanning.

Expert tip

"Before you stitch a large design in the Grand Dream Hoop, turn on projection and look at the design on your hooped fabric. Use Precise Positioning to nudge it into place instead of rehooping. For multi-hooping projects, project the next section so it meets the stitching you've already done."
