Hi there Magpie Feather. I just purchased a new Grace GMQ Pro frame. I had a couple of questions and contacted the Grace Company directly. They were wonderful!! Very helpful. I would recommend that you contact them directly. Here is their website: graceframe.com and their toll free number is 1-800-264-0644. They are located in Salt Lake City, Utah. They will be able to advise you if your sewing machine will work on the frame and if you need anything additional. Good luck! I'm still at the practicing stage but am enjoying it. I paid $1000 for mine and feel it is money well spent as 4 quilts sent out to the longarm quilter would cost that much. Keep me posted how you make out.
