back for Washington, mostly OT

Hi,

I just got back from visiting a friend in Snohomish, WA. This was not
really a quilt related trip, just a chance to visit with my friend and
climb a bit with her.

I did make it to a large fabric store in Everett (Pacific Fabric?). I
forgot my quarter inch rule, and as I was using it to help mark the
quilting lines on the quilt I brought with me, I had to replace it.
They had a lot of nice cottons, and I had to restrain myself. I thought
about going to in In the Beginning, but decided I didn't want to drive
into Seattle. I also poked around a lot of antique stores and saw some
nice quilts and tops. Nothing said 'buy me' though. It was
interesting; the last time I was in the Pacific Northwest, I bought a
lot of feedsacks and old fabric. This trip I saw very little fabric and
no feedsacks.
