Please do have a go - I got the 6600 especially so that I could do my own quilting, and haven't been disappointed. I have mine set down in a table (the Janome one for it, but it's possible to use other tables, or to build up around the machine), and that makes a big difference. It's less than 2 years since I started doing free motion, and each one I do I find easier - lots of practice is essential - you only need small scrap sandwiches. I use a Sewslip mat too on the machine bed.
And agree about this fabric, it is lovely - the red is a really dark red, so rich with the blues.
