My DH supports my quilting 110%. He reasearched machines and sat thru many demos and ended up buying me a great machine for our 25th wedding anniversary. I love it. He also enjoys fabric shopping with me now and then and has even picked out fabrics for 3 quilts I have made. He's even gone to quilt shops when on travel for work and brought me home patterns and kits! We do have very similar tastes in things, so it works out pretty well for us.
