I agree with the statement that 9" is too small, but there are a few things you can do to make quilting with those machines less problematic:

If you switch to Bottom Line bobbin thread, your bobbin will last a lot longer. Because Bottom Line is finer, I can get a lot more thread on the bobbin.
My machine has a needle up/down button, so I am able to bring the bobbin thread up. This might be something to put on your list of things you HAVE to have.

You cant bring the bobbin thread up cause you are no where near the needle. Bobbin thread running out is also a problem and it runs out fast and you dont know when it will run out.
