I use the Aunt Becky, which works along the same principle. It's fantastic, I couldn't quilt without it. You can read more about why spoon quilting is a good idea at http://www.jinnybeyer.com/quilting-w...605A1DBCC0BBDB. I don't recommend using a cutlery teaspoon, however: I tried it, and not only was it uncomfortable to hold, but it wrecked the needle very quickly. I ended up with a scratched teaspoon and a damaged needle which would actually catch in the spoon, instead of just bouncing off it.

I prefer using a Q-Snap frame myself, plus I'm in the UK, but your frame range does look very interesting.
