Patrice,
I learned how to do pintucks when I took an heirloom sewing class. Special machine feet make them easier but they can be done without one. They make a really neat effect on quilt squares etc. They would look really great in a crazy quilt or a wall hanging that showed off your machine's fancy stitches. You would do the pin tucks before you make the sandwhich and do the quilting.
Go for it,
