Yes they can, I bought one a few months back and I love it. It makes quilting on a home machine a lot easier, when quilting on a home machine.

I just started a quilt. I bought one of the free-motion darning feet and dropped the feed dogs. It takes a little practice, but looks good so far.

It is free motion. It is controlled by your movement. So anyway you move your hands up, down or sideways it will move. It sits upon two pieces of PVC pipe. It is the best product for quilting out there. Works Great!!

I use it strictly for free motion quilting. I could not use the foot pedal and keep a consistent speed. My thread kept breaking. Now , I am able to control the speed as I am quilting and getting better results.

I think it would be great on hardwood floors. We had ours on carpet, but many friends have them for their hardwood floors. probably dont even need the quilt...

I use mine quite often to press things that I don't need an ironing board for; and have never experienced any of the quilting pattern to transfer to my garments or flat pieces. Never really thought about the possibility of it; but have been using mine for a few month now and have not experienced it happening.

I can't say from quilting experience, but I don't see any reason why it can't be done. Same idea as binding. Maybe someone else has more experience with cutting such narrow strips.

No. It can be used for seam binding, top stitching, and elastic application with appropriate attachments.

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 would not buy this Distinctive Free Motion Darning foot again. It was mostly plastic and it didn't even stand up to quilting one quilt.

The ease of free motion quilting it provides is well worth any necessary actions. My quilting has improved greatly since having the slider on my machine.

I really can't answer as I don't quilt. I bought this for my 8 yr old granddaughter to learn to sew, the spools are quiet small but the thread is sturdy.

Depending on the size of your quilt. The case is only about 3" thick. If your quilt is thick and full size, this case will not work. Just not enough room.

Paul, I don't know why Amazon referred your question to me "As a reviewer of Sunbeam Thermofine Quilted. . ."Apparently they didn't look at my review which said I bought the item as a gift, had it drop shipped, and have had no report on how well it functions (not to mention whether it can be used on and adjustable bed frame. Sorry.

Yes,I have used it to sew a quilt top together because it stitches a seam and overlocks at the same time. It is especially good for knit fabric. :-)

This machine does not have quilting templates. It does off different stitches that are indicated on the front of the machine. My main focus for using this machine is for the embroidery portion.
