Sorry Quilty-Louise, but any statement that starts with "I need....." for a project simply doesn't count. Your bruises just scaled back a notch.
I will have to buy some non-sewing things this week. Signed up for an art class (Drawing on the right side of the brain) and apparently need a bunch of supplies. Some I have (but where and are they still good)? Others I don't have so a trip to Michael's is in order. BUT - HAHA, it's not fabric.
