Glad you are enjoying it. Actually all you need is a longarm with a good straight stitch and that is large enough. 24-26 inch neck and a 12 foot frame. If you only use it occasionally and haven't put in the time to get even stitches, stitch regulation is good. However, most of the professional quilters I know who do fantastic work, don't even use the stitch regulator most of the time. The stitch regulator actually makes it a bit harder especially when you are doing small scale quilting as the stitch regulator strives to make all you stitches exactly the same meaning it is actually fighting you a bit. I took classes from a professional and she made me turn off the stitch regulator, while my stitches were not very consistant in length, my smaller shapes were much easier and better to make.
