HQ Avante Set up Day

The HQ Avante has arrived and I am planning to spend my Sunday reorganising the downstairs section of Red Shed Quilting......it will change from a cuppatea/sewing space to a demonstation/teaching space for the "Sweet 16" and the "HQ Avante 18".

Classes will be upstairs from now on....we have installed a chair lift so it is easier to get our machines up stairs....

If you own a "Sweet 16" or a "HQ Avante 18" you may be interested in two classes coming up.....details on the website www.redshedquilting.com.au ........would love to see you there.

New quilt labels have arrived....

Finished a custom using Keryn Emmerson's "Perry" block......loved the outcome.......

Another cuppa....then shower and get on with the day...
