I'm not sure if DH really understands what this is all about. I think he's too left-brained to do so - quilting is not at all logical in his mind. He grumbles a lot, but like the provervial dog, he's all bark & no bite. He did buy me a Janome 6600P because I wanted it.
I do make him a quilt every once in a while to keep him happy. We are talking about one for his new office. I hesitate to make it as right after we hung the last one, he was laid off.
