My husband and I made a deal many moons ago. For every music store we visit, we visit one quilt shop. And neither one of us complains. When we travel, I know he will pack at least one if not two guitars and an amplifier, depending on where he will be playing, and I will pack at least one if not two sewing machines, depending on what I'm working on. We check in to a hotel, and he goes and makes music and I stay and sew (after I've checked out the hot tub LOL).
