Fortunately, I was in the sewing room when it happened, so frantically started grabbing stuff...it was a lot of fabric and quilting magazines that suffered the damage. My sewing room used to be a small beauty salon and has water pipes in there. My worry now is that the plumber will have to open up that wall :( (And that I will have to spend my tax refund to pay them, when I had MUCH better plans for it!!)
Will contact insurance company tomorrow.

Take lots of pictures...it helps to let insurance know just how much there was....make sure that you note how much the cover price is of the quilt magazines...you won't get the whole thing so at least this helps to cover the deductable. Also how many garbage bags of stuff too bad to save. Write it down, before you put it into the bag.

I'm heartbroken for you. I have experienced bursting pipes, which is awful enough.... but never near my sewing room! I hope your sewing machines aren't ruined... while wet fabric can be a pain... at least it can be dried... but still... I'm so sorry to hear about it!

It might be better to fix it without calling the insurance company at all. Sometimes they mark you as having had water damage even if you don't file a claim.
