I feel your pain. My hubby is firmly convinced that only "girly" men quilt or sew. Of course, this irks me somewhat, because both my sons know their way around a sewing machine (He's not their father). I try reminding him that sewing used to be the realm of men, as in tailors.

The trouble is that he doesn't believe men quilt. He is so old school that he can't belive that a man can work with fabric and be stright. Need some help in convincing him that men make great quilters. HELP
