Glad to hear you got a new machine. How exciting! I would have a problem working down the hall from a quilt store though. I wouldn't be able to pass it let alone take any money home at the end of the week!
Can't wait to see your table runner! Have Fun!

Not sure how many are familiar with quilterscache.com
but you can get a lot of great free quilt square patterns on there! Free patterns means more $$$ for fabric, right?

since your job is just "extra" and you work so close to a fabric shop - why don't you just have your employer direct deposit your check to the shop's bank account? save time. lol

like misseva just said you really should just do direct deposit of your check to the shop. that way you will have a running tab and can just shop with out thinking about it. hehe

Congrats, Texan, on your new machine. I know you will really enjoy it. Have a lot of fun and be sure and show us the results.
Looks like you moved from one Big state to one just somewhat bigger. But we can all finally accept the fact that Alaska is bigger than Tex., and a lot colder lol. Being a native Texan myself I can get by with this remark.

Congratulations on your new machine. I have a Joanns only half amile from home, it would be very bad having a guilt shop so close to work. Enjoy your new machine and happy quilting.
