OK, well I thought today was going better than yesterday - but on my way home I had some major problems with the credit card - long story and I'm still mad about it - tomorrow I'll be able to joke about it and fill you in.
Anyway, I wasn't able to stop at the quilt store last night to drown my sorrows because I had to work too late (since I got in so late). So I stopped tonight at a sewing store I only go to, to get good thread. So I decided to browse through their books. They have TONS of quilt books - funny because they don't really teach quilting, they do more "sewing".
Anyway - all of a sudden I thought, geez - they have some really old books here, I wonder if they have left over the ever popular, completely talked about on the maveriks, wonder book - Liberated Quilting. I really didn't expect to find it, but figured it wouldn't hurt to look. Well lo and behold - guess what they had 3 copies of! So I FINALLY got my hands on one for less than $50! It only cost me the regular price of $24! After I bought it I told them they were going for over $50 on Amazon and Ebay!
So I"m off to go read through it - but I was just too excited to wait to tell you about it tomorrow!

I am so jealous. I got mine at the library and made copies at kinkos so I would have time to peruse it. Great find.
Great find! Don't you just love it when that happens.

Hurrah!!! Something good in an otherwise miserable day. Can't believe you told the store how much they could sell them for - shoulda bought all of the books yourself. I hope you love the book and even if you don't, you know you can sell it easily :)
OH YOU LUCKY DOG!! errmm...quilter! I paid $45 for mine off amazon used. And I consider it worth EVERY penny! I'm so glad you find yours!
