Candace, I don't piece and 99% of my sewing machine usage is quilting, so *if* I can use her to FMQ, she's a keeper to me!
Then you should be fine. I wouldn't bother hunting for a 1/4" for it as it would be a waste as the feed dogs would mess up any straight piecing. But you should be able to FMQ fine with it. The throat is a bit small, but you'll have to gauge if you can deal with that.
