I haven't used it to quilt anything, and don't think I ever would,but I have used it for applique. It worked great, no pokies if you take the time and care to tie your threads under the top (or bury them if you are quilting with it). My only complaint about it was that it was shiny. I understand that Superior has come out with a new product that has a matte finish, I have the perfect product to try it on and can't wait! I will also look for the Harriet Hargrave product mentioned earlier.
