I love seeing guys in quilt shops. I make sure I give them a smile when they're in there. I've seen all kinds: the ones that are along for the ride with their wife, ones that don't wanna be there, ones that are really helpful, male quilters (I make sure I'm extra-nice to them. Plus, I like to hear what they are working on!), men shopping with their male partners (again, love chatting them!) and one time a guy that was shopping for fabric because HE was the one that sewed for his little girls AND his wife! So, if the staff is not friendly, as a customer I know I make up for it. One time this guy was looking for urban cammo at Joanne's and I chit-chatted w/him...just friendly you know? He came back and asked me on what could only be considered a date. :shock: I declined for many reasons, one being I'm happily married and two...he had to be at least ten years younger than me! :lol:
