I've not tried it but I would say no. But now that you have asked, I will try it. It just seems to me that the frame would get in the way and not be stable at all.

I am sorry I can't help you - it was a gift for a woman who hand quilts - C.

This frame is perfect for your stitching proyects, you don´t have to move your work up and down and the fabric is not maltreat

I don't know much about machine quilting as I use a 1950's Singer featherweight machine for piecing and then do all quilting by hand. I suppose if you can use a hoop type frame that this would be similar. I use this frame for quilting and other hand needlework.

I don't know very much about embroidery, but the fabric is your basic canvas with some coating material so I would think that it would be okay for hand embroidery, but might not be sturdy enough for machine embroidery. The dimensions were a little smaller than I anticipated, so designs would have to be fairly small.

This thread is for sewing machine or hand sewing. It is not for embroidery. I have this and it works good for me.

On the felt that I used yes! I tried it on some netting and it does well. To cut fabric, the only thing I can see that would hinder it is if you do not have the fabric down in a manner not to allow the blade to move well. I have made a quilt using the Disappearing Nine Patch. I know after I sew the nine patch back together for second or third or fourth cuts, The problem is the build up the layers of fabric and thread at the seams. That is why, I say with confidence, as long as you have your fabric down correctly on a good cutting board there should be no problem. I have had no problems.

Yes you can. You are basically sewing precut forms. The machine is just a enclosed needle that moves up and down. The felt self seals due to the material.

I am thinking that your machine is not one with the longer arm, making more space for machine quilting? If that is the case, your machine would be fine. If your machine has a bigger space for quilting, I am not so sure. I have a Bernina 750, which has the longer arm making more space to the right of the needle and I don't think it would work well for that machine. will you be ordering the machine surround, it fills in the space all around your machine as it sits on the lower platform in the table. Thereby having your machine arm inside and surrounded by the table, you have to order it from the makers of the table.

No. I would not buy this machine for all around quilting. I do small piece machine quilting and serge ring. I love my Janome Memory Craft 6600.machine to do bigger piece quilting and free motion. I bought Janome Jem Gold so if I am free motioning I don't have to change settings.

I am no expert but the qualities of warm and natural allow for both hand or machine quilting. Minimal shifting between the layers.

most new machines for home use are low shank machines, what make and model is yours? It would be easier for us to tell you if it would work. It makes Quilting a breeze as well as working with slippery fabrics.

I run a small business & do a lot of sewing. I have use this machine on just about every type of fabric. If you have the correct needles & thread, you can do just about anything with it. they also take a good amount of abuse as well. I can honestly say that it probably was not designed for 1/3 of the things I've done with it..lol but it always comes through with flying colors for me.

Yes, I believe you could use it for that. I copy my patterns on it and stitch over them for paper piecing quilting.

I am just starting to make quilts, I know this is a quilting stitch. I am not sure if the machine will have the capability. I think it will on small projects with a special foot.

Yes you can, I did it sometimes but I used it more to make a flour for ma home made bread :-)

Sure you can and I have for years....I use it to drill the blank, square the ends, and assemble. I have turned pens on it too but prefer a smaller lathe for my pen work.

Yes it does work well. The burst is strong and I use the function often when pressing pieces when quilting.

I feel that it would. It just like your regular full size sewing machine. It makes a beautiful seam. I have pieced full quilt tops with just this machine.

I have cut out several cotton fabric appliques with Steam a Seam Lite backing. It works great. The iron on adhesive that comes with the machine seems very heavy but I have not tried it. As a quilter you might be interested to hear that it can also cut quilting stencils.
