not at all.
because that's the way i like it, i use it to my advantage.
having the quilt "pulled" straight comes in handy for straight-line with my walking foot.
i have an easier time with borders, too.
if i need to reduce drag, i puddle the quilt "just enough" on the table behind my machine, just as i have to do when i'm using the embroidery feature.

i should note, though ...
i am a bit self-indulgent when it comes to equipment so i have a nice big table to work on.
