i use the embroidery function on my machine almost exclusively for quilting.
as expensive as it is, i think i have already gotten more than my money's worth out of the magna monster.
the way i use the machine i don't think the magna shifts any more than a regular hoop does.
it's all a matter of learning how to keep the weight of the quilt sandwich from dragging it out of kilter.
(a skill i am still working on. lol)

there are lots of things i like about it.
my favorite thing is that i can gently tug the sandwich taut without stretching it out of shape.
it's soooooo much easier to align things the way i need them than it is with a regular hoop.
