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.
I meant when a DH has to have you with him whatever he is doing or you are doing. (I have friends that can't go to guild without getting phone calls asking when are you coming home) A DH that will help because he wants to will be a bonus!
