I wonder why the tiny 221 is a favorite for quilters, it has to be the portable factor and I guess it's mostly for piecing? I think a lot like the 15-91 and Pfaff 30 for the actual quilting part, they do well with top stitch thread and larger bulks of fabric. There are a lot of capable vintage models though.
