I just realized I didn't post pictures of my new longarm in its new home!
Please understand...the "shop" I have it in was a wood storage room on this house when we bought it 5 yrs ago. DH took everything but the studs down and built up from the floor up (used to have wood pallets for a floor!). We dedicated 1/2 of the room for storage. It was to be my stained glass shop. I couldn't get myself back into stained glass --- too much blood! So now, it's my quilting room. I've taken over 2/3 of the area. Since last Thursday, we took down the old Pfaff Grandquilter, took up carpeting, laid wood laminate flooring, moved the wall on the right back a few feet and reorganized the storage. It's amazing what I can toss after saving for so long!!!! This summer I'm going to paint the room and put some of my wallhangings up. I LOVE the Avante!!! Wow!!!!!!! Anyone know someone that would like a Pfaff Grandquilter with QBOT???? BTW - that's not a "real" quilt on the machine --- it's my play quilt... :) I know it's not rolled on there right...... And sorry about the pictures -- I'm a quilter, not a photographer! |
What a great space to do quilting in! Your own ""lady cave"!
|
LOL -- that's why my DH calls it!
|
Wow, that is a wonderful room and I'm :mrgreen: over you new baby :XD: She a real beauty :P
|
Pretty new toy. Wish I had your talent!
|
Lovely!
|
Just Awesome Just Awesome.
|
What a wonderful room and new machine :D:D:D
|
lol, what a great place....love it, hope you enjoy it...
|
I LOVE your "lady cave." I only wish you lived closer to me. I have been looking to purchase a used longarm, but quilting isn't as popular in South Florida as it is up north. GOOD LUCK
|
I'm so happy for you :D but must admit to a little quilter's envy :mrgreen:
|
Awesome!
|
Lucky Lady and her Woman Cave
|
Your room is perfect. I see some natural light and overhead. You are going to be a happy lady in there
with the music and new toy. |
well count me jealous...looks like the perfect retreat
|
Yay for you! Love your new space!
|
Oh, how lucky you are...I have a little case of 'envy' going on here...lol
|
I love your new space and new toy! I know you will have many happy hours with her. And many beautiful quilts! Congrats on your space & toy.
|
Congratulations on your own quilting room and new toy.
|
Congrats. I love my longarm. It is so much easier on the body than a small machine. I can do larger patterns and outrageous feathers on the longarm. So I am always happy to see another quilter get one
|
Congratulations on your Avante and your sewing space! I love my Avante and I cant wait to see the projects you complete on yours.
|
Great space and awsome machine......
|
The room looks wonderful!! I'll be down to "play" soon. Congrats, Dee!!
|
have fun with your new toy
|
I have the Grandquilter and wish I'd held out for something like you just got! Before I'd even quilted one quilt, I could see that I'd rather have had an 18" throat! Oh well, I'll make do for now but you can bet I'm going to be saving up some money! Have fun with your new toy/tool!
|
Congratulations I know that you feel like you are in heaven. Grownup toys are just soooooooooooooo much fun. Can I come play with you sometime?
|
I was sitting on the sun porch yesterday thinking to myself this would make an awesome quilting room :-) but I don't think my DH would let me take it over :-/. Maybe this summer we'll pop out my sewing room (now 9 x 11) - not quite big enough to set my frame up full length and have room for everything else. Enjoy you new baby, I'm sure you have a lot of bonding time.
|
Congrads to your new machine. Your quilt cave is awesome. Have fun with your new LA I can't wait to see more of your quilting!
|
Good for you, have fun with your new room.
|
Great machine and room.
|
Pretty cool Dee! :D
|
Congratulations! Like you room...love your Avante
|
Can you show a pic of your older one and price??
Thanks, delma |
Congratulations on your new baby and a wonderful room. May you spend many happy hours there.
|
Oh man your one lucky lady. So this is your second long arm?
|
very nice studio!!
I am waiting for DH to give me an answer on weither or not I can upgrade to the Avente! send all positive mojo my way please! PS Congradulations!! the company is great to work with! |
Enjoy.... i am dreaming of an upgrade..... i have the pinnacle frame (grace).... with a 10"throat space janome 1600... works very well... but still have the bug about going to an 18".... we shall see... have fun...
|
Very nice room and quilting machine a set up. I am glad for you.
|
Can you use the Grandquilter for regular sewing, for example piecing?
|
Yay! Mine's here too! May I add a picture? My room isn't as cool as yours ;-)
