My late DH was not only an avid bird hunter, a hobby not available for many years while living and working in FL but when we retired and came to NC we got the Springer spaniel and he got together with his old hunting buddies from 35 years earlier and they met every fall in MI in Oct. and in SD in Nov. He also indulged in shooting skeet and sporting clays every week and ended up loading his own shot shells and collecting shot guns. Needless to say he never commented on my obscene collection of fabric and whenever we traveled there were always stops and gun shops and quilt shops. I've always said that every quilter needs to have a spouse who has a very expensive hobby. He did quietly observe once that he saw more fabric going into that room than coming out of that room. He was absolutely correct in that observation.
