No, there are not any feed dogs on the S16.
Just because you do not have feed dogs or a walking foot, does not mean you cannot do SITD .... it will be FMQd. A bit of practice and you will not find it is all that hard.
You can also use rulers to help keep your stitching straight, whether for SITD or other straight line quilting you might want on the quilt.
The BabyLock Tiara is the same machine as the S16 .... made by HQ and re-painted/branded for BL.
Innova has a sitdown model.
ManiacQ ..... Congratulations on all your successes. What works for one, does not always work for others. Many have had equally good successes with the modern technology offered in these sit down machines ... and other types of machines. And have even sung praises to them ... right ... here ... on ... this ... board.
Hopefully, some will find this thread and share.
I test drove them a year ago ... and am still lusting over them.
Someday!!!!!
