The only problem I would have with this machine is trying to quilt on it because of the rounded throat space. It does not allow much to be crammed in there not matter how you scrunch and cram. I have a brother with the rounded space, that is the ONLY thing I don't like about my Brother machine! On the other hand if you have another machine that you could actually quilt on.....then you wouldn't need this machine for quilting! problem solved.
