    I went to my LQS today to check out the annual sale. $9.29 - $9.99 fabrics for $4, $5 and $6 dollars - including one I just paid full price for, darn it. I only had time to buy one piece I needed tonight (at full price) with plans to spend I lot of time there tomorrow. On the way out of town to pick up a granddaughter, my car was totaled. I am home, though in much pain. If I can walk tomorrow, I've already put a non-sewing daughter on alert that I need to go to the fabric store.

    This store only has one sale a year, so it's a good chance to get some great fabrics. The first will be the backing for my second daughter's birthday quilt. That one needs to be done in early January. I'd better start my list as I won't be able to pop in daily. Double darn. I hate car shopping.

    Oh, I hope you will feel better soon! That's why I shop online for the most part! No driving.

    I am so sorry to hear about your accident. Thank goodness you are ok. I agree a trip to the LQS may be just what you need.

    So sorry you have to go through this. I an glad that you weren't seriously hurt and are still making plans to attend the LQS sale. Word of caution - you may find that you are even more stiff and sore tomorrow, so remember to take whatever the doc recommends for pain.

    I am sorry to hear about your accident that happened to me a few months ago but as much as I hate car shopping I found a cute car at a great price and the main thing is we are both still alive and can keep on quilting! Have fun shopping for fabric my real weakness...
