I use the embroidery stitches on my regular machine to do my machine quilting in the ditch. They not only cover more area but they help hide points that don't match etc.

I do have embroidery patterns for my "embroidery" machine that do simple line motifs that are meant to appear as handquilting. For the most part they are designed not to have the tie over stitches that would look odd on the back.
