Hi all,

I'm curious about all types of quilting as a newbie, in fact I'm a bit like a kid in a sweet shop about it all right now lol. Although I'd like to try hand quilting I'd like to keep my options open and maybe do some machine work aswell.

I was looking at a book today online & it say's you need a sewing machine with a 1/4" foot?? My sewing machine doesn't come with one, neither is one available. It just has a zig zag foot, a zipper foot & a buttonhole foot. Does this mean I can't use it for quilting? Do you have to have a special machine for quilting? It doesn't do embroidery stitches either. The model is a toyota JSP10. If I'd need a different kind of machine can anyone make any suggestions please no brother machines as my last one was a brother & we didn't get on lol. Also what other accessories are needed for machine quilting.

Thanks in advance
