Ditto .... give it a try.
It may be wise to make a block from the actual pattern you have been asked to make,
so you can see how it works with all the seams and any other details in the pattern.
I'd suggest taking it one step further and finish off your test block/project as a mini quilt,
to see how the quilting goes, and what you learn from that step.
No sense making a quilt ... and then discovering that it would be unquiltable!
While not in a quilt, what I have used was very nice to work with, so to me it seems quite do-able.
Just be sure you know any special instructions, such as pressing.
My recollections are that it pressed well, but had to be from the wrong side, and a lower heat.
However, there are different types and weights of faux suede,
so the trial run with the actual fabric would be important step.
