You'll love it! It doesn't have a built-in walking foot, it has "dual feed." A walking foot is so much better for layers, vinyl, quilting, flannel, minky, etc. But the dual feed is great for piecing 2 layers. You'll get best results in piecing if you use a #34D foot and move your needle position to the right. With the wider feed dogs, it's difficult for the 1/4" foot to feed the fabric through.
