I have a 12" Bernina Frame and I quilt full size bed quilts on it with my Bernina Aurora 440QE which has a throat space of approx. 7"-8". This means I have a very small quilting space - approx. 4"-5". If you don't mind doing 'row' quilting or meandering this would work for you. If you want to do elaborate block designs, then you will need a longer throat space. As far as that particular frame, I am not familiar with it. But if this is your first endeavor and you can get a machine and a frame for $485 it might be a good place for you to start and then graduate to a larger set up when you feel comfortable. Someone will buy your set up from you when you are done with it for that amount of money!
