I've quilted a queen w/my reg. machine, but you do need the walking foot attachment and practice before attempting a queen. I would recommend the walking foot attachment and a few other extra feet with whatever you buy. They are just basic feet that you change out. No biggy. You will like a "newer" machine where you have a quick release to push a button and change your feet out. Also, the needle threader and needle cutter are great. Just take your time shopping around. Have fun!XO Sandra
