Seek out other husband/wife quilters. I have been told that it is better that husband not learn from the wife. It is better for him t learn from another surce. It has to do with the dominate one in the couple. And also it is better that the wife not exertg too much influence over his learning and his work. It is sometime like having your own quilt police in the same house. Just a caution about how you might approace this. There are couples here in the board. Seek their advice. Find a beginners class where he might feel comfortable. Or send him to our QuiltGuy retreat in eastern NY in late March. Have him sign on to the QuiltGuy Yahoo group. Seek out other male quilters in your area. There is probably some in the local guilds there. Take him to your guild meeting as an easy introduction.
