Default FW & Free-Motion Quilting

I have a "new to me" featherweight, Gussie, and am wondering about using her for FMQing. I haven't tried it out yet, other than some basic stitching, but i've seen a number of comments here where people have ooh'd and aah'd over the FMQing on a 15-91. I bought a 15-91 that i cleaned up and it's working, but i'm nervous about its electrical and want to have it replaced before i use it much.

Is the FW good for FMQ? Any tips? Or should i use the FW for piecing and get the 15-91 working for FMQ?

Do you cover the feed dogs with something? In the past, I've used my Rocketeer 503a for FMQ and its feed dogs drop.
