Have you actually tried sitting and quilting on a frame? I would strongly suggest you do so before buying. If you want to sit and quilt, have you considered a sitdown quilter? I use the Juki sitdown and really like it. Not so much because I get to sit, but because I am better at moving the quilt around than moving a heavy machine head around. I have better control. You need to try out different setups (perhaps at a show) before you decide. Good luck!
