I had bought this very large floor frame for hand quilting years ago, but since I've moved I've been quilting everything on my treadle sewing machines (which is a lot of fun, btw).
Welcome to the board! I use a floor frame for quilting, but like everyone else said, it's up to you whether you use a frame, hoop or nothing at all.
I used a treadle for a long time. It's still my go-to machine when I need something done quickly, like a catnip pillow for my furry helper. I've tried some freemotion on it - talk about aerobic activity, LOL.
