    I own the SQ9000 and have done quilting with it. Make sure your feet are lowered, and you have darning foot attached. You can quilt straight lines, in the ditch etc without lowering the feet.
    What does it seem to do that you can't quilt with it?

    Quilting can be done on almost any regular sewing machine. Do you have a walking foot for the machine? One of the easiest ways to machine quilt is to use a walking food and simply make gently curvy lines from one end of the quilt to the other.

    Quilting is just like sewing for the machine. It is making stitches -- just through all three layers of the quilt sandwich.
