My DH suddenly changed the day we retired! I have my sewing machine behind the couch he sits on,and by George! If he didn't tell me to upgrade so the machine will be quieter! I did;got the Janome 8900, and he says it's an improvement. We are taking our trailer on a trip and have has made a lot of suggestions about which projects I should take along! All of a sudden,he's got opinions about color,design,quality of work etc. I draw the line when it comes to taking a photo of everything in my stash, and recording,filing,etc. I told him he would really like to unsew seams..it's so relaxing! Also,he now says I have to clean up my quilting language...that may be going too far!
