I too, far prefer geometric lines or a serpentine. easier on me, easier on the machine, and I get very nice results.
I also make double sided quilts so any big effort to special free motion on one side would be totally lost on the other.
I've seen such incredible intricate free motion from domestic machines though, I know it is perfectly possible...if there is a will to practice and do it often. I'd far rather be cutting and piecing.
