My DH loves the idea of quilting. His DGM would sit for hours and piece. He loved to watch her. He always wanted me to take up quilting but never had time until we retired. THEN, he decided he would also start quilting. Well, he loves the idea of quilting, loves to look at material and loves to tell me what colors, patterns, I should use. He started his own quilt top 4 years ago and is still pulling it our every 3 or 4 months and works on it for an hour or so and then packs it up again. No, I don't want him to share in this with me. This is MY hobby and I need it just for me. I'm going to join a Guild next month and it's not something he can share with me. I don't go with him and his buddies when they play golf and tell then what they're doing wrong, so......I'm wanting the same thing from him. This is my outlet from the 24/7 that comes with retirement.
