My husband several years ago decided that he wanted to quilt. So we got him a sewing machine and some of the tools. He made a wall hanging and a single bed quilt. It turned out great.
As some one said in this thread watch out when you do that. He is terrible for pointing out that someone seams don't match. That would be okay if he would keep his voice down. He is proud of my quilting. Not so happy that I have spent 4500 on 3 sewing machines and 1 frame in the last 4 years. But he never stops me from buying. So I guess I will keep him.
