That leaves me out. My DH is right behind me. However, he does some quilting too. So, maybe. Just maybe.......
That part of the husband is not necessarily bad. I can not think of anyone more famous in the quilting world than Alex Anderson, and John is an integral part of who he is. He plays it well and don't interfere, but he is always there. Actually, the company she is with right now is ARJJ (Alex, Ricky, John, Justin). Alex and John are a couple, Ricky and Justin are a couple. It is possible for your spouse to help make your name.
