Mine is absolutely an enabler! He's got a great eye for color and design, and has designed a couple of quilts that I just need to find time to make now. He is very helpful when I'm trying to find that one fabric I need to make the design work, especially when I'm trying to work solely from my stash.

Don't know if he'd try to make one, but I bet when I get a true LA (I have a 9" machine for now), he'll want to try it out. :)

Mine will make sure I have the best tools to work with (not that I know how to use all of them!) He is also a math whiz - everytime I'm stumped on measurements he comes to my rescue, and does it so very gently. He "feels" fabric with me and is my great encourager!
