Is the machine capable of a basting stitch? I see that the stitch length/width cannot be adjusted...

The machine has 3 straight stitch settings, 6 stitches per inch, 10-11/inch and 18/inch. If I need to baste, I just use the 6 stitches per inch and loosen the tension slightly so I can pull the threads out when I am done. Hope that helps!

How easy is it to control the speed of the machine? Does it go fast by just lightly tapping on the foot controller? I need a machine that can go SLOW!

It does not race! Just depress lightly and it will sew perfectly.

what is size of the machine?

I bought this machine for my 9-year old granddaughter. The machine is not quite as big as a standard machine. I think it is 3/4 the size. I bought this specific model because many of my quilter friends have one. It's perfect for taking to sewing or quilting classes or retreats as it is lightweight. But it functions great for many uses. It sews quite a few different stitches, has a nice straight stitch. The machine is easy to use also. I would highly recommend this machine.

Does anyone use this machine for quilting? Can you sew through thick layers easily while quilting?

most solutions to sewing machines lie in the feet you choose for your project. When quilting I use the walking foot a great deal of the time. Your welcome
