I bought this machine to take on a quilting retreat on an airplane. I love this little machine. The way you get a scant 1/4" seam is to move the needle position to 5.5 using the J foot (3.5 is center).
I also have a Babylock Symphony and the Brother Quattro 2. The only differences between these 3 machines are all the added features - they basically all sew the same great basic stitch. In other words, I can't tell the difference which machine I sewed the straight stitch on.
I would be happy to talk to you on the phone and answer any questions you have, please pm me.
