i think it's fine for the top layers, but i'm also looking for one with more room. i have a fantasy of having a linen closet with a nice stack of beautiful large quilts that i made. :)
It is getting good reviews. Does it have a 1/4" foot or can you get one for it? That is really important for accurate piecing. I didn't realize before that you had anything so I would say stick with that until you decide you want to "move up". You might decide your aunt is right and you want to hand quilt. Or you might decide you want something different for the actual quilting. You will find many people have multiple machines. Some are just for free motion quilting and only do straight stitch. Give yourself some time because a good machine will be an investment.
