I'm also wondering if people are happy with this frame. I've watched the videos and was excited but then when I went to look at it, it seemed like a very small quilting area. For reference - I have done free motion quilting by just moving the quilt around on the machine. I'd like to try a frame and put my machine on it but am limited to 7 ft in length. This seemed the perfect solution, until I went and looked at the Brother which is a full 5 ft. but much more expensive.
