I love this machine. I have done some light quilting so I think it should sew denim but can't swear to it. I purchased for quilt classes due to its light weight. Hope that helps a bit.

yes - I press my jeans, blouses, sweats, I even press my pajamas. I love this machine!! Best purchase I made this year. Creases on slacks are crisp.The creases on jeans hold up too.

Yes...This the 900CPX can sew through multiple layers of denim and fleece. The 900CPX also uses standard sewing needles. Let me know if you have any further questions. Pals Vac & Sew

I've sewn through 4 layers of denim using the appropriate needle for heavy fabrics. The machine can handle up to 15/64" thickness of material. For stretch fabrics, there is a particular needle and stitch patterns for stretch and elastic sewing.

I did not find the fabric stiff. It is a fairly lightweight item and is not as soft as a traditionally quilted item.

No. I use my for larger designer projects. My husband can iron his pants but he is much larger than you.

I have not sewn leather on this machine, but it goes through multiple layers of denim like a dream. It's fast too. Great machine.

I hem my husband's jeans on this one, and use it to sew on my uniform patches. I use a heavy needles & set the tension high, and it works just fine.

Yes. Just be sure to purchase a needle specific for sewing heavy fabrics like denim.

I haven't tried it personally, but I believe this machine is plenty strong enough to handle quilting. It has a few quilt-specific stitches, but depending on the results you're looking for, it may not have all the quilting stitches that you'd get on a higher-end or quilt-specific machine.

I purchased this iron for quilting but so far have only ironed clothes with it. My previous irons were inexpensive

I have been working with this machine for about a week, and really like it for what it can do. However, it does have a bit of a difficulty getting over thick portions of the fabric.....where two seams intersect, etc. For this reason, I would assume that it might have a difficult time with thicker fabrics. I've learned that when I must sew over the intersection of seams, I must go very slowly. Then, it's pretty good.

It is a full fledged sewing machine... Just not the most hearty one I've seen. I wouldn't go sewing denim.

Not for quilting. Difficult to use, and often have trouble with it. For plain sewing, I'd suggest something like The Denim Star sold at Walmart.

Yes it does. After reading the other reviews, I was fully prepared to make quilting stitches myself to prevent the movement they complained of. But when the comforter arrived, there was plenty of one inch stitching seams throughout the comforter that should keep the batting in place. The stitches are nicely placed and not really noticeable either. I have not washed it to test, but I usually have these dry cleaned anyway. It is way too bulky to fit in a normal washer.

No, it doesn't. You can move the frame to whatever part of the quilt that you are working on. Hope that helps. Hard to explain, but I love my frame!
