You've only been quilting for a couple of years? It takes a little time for some hubbys to 'get it'. My DH's mother didn't sew and only took up quilting when she retired so he didn't have a clue when we married 45 years ago. He used to sit and watch me stitch.... His aunts and grandmother sewed and quilted but they were hundred of miles away. Anyway, he now brags on my quilts and shows whoever comes to visit. He gives me feedback on my work and suggests things that he thinks will look nice. He even tells me whenever he sees a featherweight in an auction flyer. So, give your guy a little time..... I'm thinking he'll come around.
