You don't need a frame or templates. Just make up a practice quilt sandwich and try it out. You do need a darning foot. Most people drop the feed dogs, but some people find it easier to machine quilt with the feed dogs up. You also do not need to turn the machine; most people machine quilt just fine in the regular position. Experiment. Most people find controlling stitch length the biggest problem.
If you go to

This is much more likely to help your machine quilting efforts than a frame would do. Frames are useful when you decide to move a (big) step up in the quilting world to get the kind of setup where you are moving the machine to quilt, rather than the quilt sandwich. Many quilters are quite happy to stick with their regular sewing machines, in which case a frame is likely not going to be very helpful.
