I made a snowball quilt on the serger once - the back of that quilt top was the prettiest I've ever seen - so clean and finished.
I wouldn't do it all the time, but if I ever made a flannel or satin quilt, again, I would certainly use the serger. I might use it for children's quilts because I think they add some durability.
I almost always use my serger with a rather wide seam to trim my quilts in preparation for binding.
