My sewing machine is a Bernina. It doesn't have all the embroidery stitches although there are Bernina machines that have them. What I love is that when I bought the machine it came with all the tools quilters need. Previously, I thought I didn't need to buy a walking foot. I use it more than I ever thought I would. I use it to put my bindings on, when I sew those circle pieces together for a pillowcase and, of course, for straight machine quilting. So whatever you decide on, get a walking foot.
