Yes, I have embroidered whole quilts and or used it to quilt with. I sew every day unless sick or out of town. I have 2 Des.1's , 4 classroom machines, a mega quilter, singer featherweight, 2 industrial machines, an antique singer, 2 tredel singers and one serger for now. I don't have them all in one room but have 2 sewing rooms, one is for me and one is a classroom but we use mine too. Someday I hope to have it all set up in one big room with all machines set up to use. my feather weight is on a shelf and my tredel is buried under sewing projects.
