I have one and use it frequently but not for quilting per se. It is great for finishing the inside seams of purse and totes. Sometimes I can eliminate the separate lining and attach inner pockets directly to the outer layer. Use it more for clothing though, I must admit. Kaye Wood does have a great pattern for a quick quilt made completely on the serger which is wonderful for kids or a charity project. I think it is called the 5 hour quilt. I have also seen patterns in the Clotilde catalog for serger quilts, but they all appear to just be variations on the Kaye Wood original idea. I can't imagine using a serger for quilting requiring precision piecing, but if you just want "sturdy" for play quilts or picnic throws, it would be ever so much faster. If you have no other use for one outside of quilting, it would be quite an expense though.
