I told you it was going to be an exciting month

Sunday morning, I quilted my last quilt on my HQ16. It was the August UFO and one of Lois' that was just in blocks when I found it.






After I got the quilt off the frame, I took it apart, vacuumed the floor and got ready for Tuesday when my new toy arrived. Here's what I am playing with now!



It is a new HQ Avante with an 18" throat. So far, I have only quilted a test piece on it, but love it already!
