If you are going to be quilting large bed size quilts, even a mid-arm sewing machine is a big help. I agree that the larger the throat means that you will be able to quilt large projects quicker.

i agree with the others , get the most you can for more satisfaction

Wow! That is exactly what I needed to hear! Thanks.

I have the 13", and actually measured the space on the queen I just completed and can get 8 1/2" at the end, when tightly rolled completely on the take up bar. I love my 13 Bailey which I use totally for my own hobby needs (or wants), but with that being said, it's all a matter of being able to mentally justify the cost of my toys
