Sewing Machines for Quilters
Susan Fears gives a tour of what a "quilter’s sewing machine" can do, demonstrating the various stitches available to a quilter who's looking for a sewing machine that goes beyond the basics.

Many of the high-end sewing machines have specialized accessories, presser feet and programmable embroidery and quilting stitches, including a whole quilt menu. Fears demonstrates the process for how the embroidery hoop works and shows how to program a quilt pattern.
