Wow what a wonderful husband you have. It is a pleasure to read about a couple that are so in tune to each other. My DH is also a wonderful guy. He will take me to hunt for fabric etc. However he usually waits outside in the car or does other errands.

He is definitley a keeper.
I Swedish Weave also. Have made hundreds of stuff. I have about 3 big tote bags and 4 or 5 plastic crates of yarn. DH knew I like yarn so he bought me 2 skeins to put in my Christmas Stocking. Then he realized how much I already had! LOL

It showed how much he cares for you and you can never have enough yarn. I just started another afghan to work on while we sit together in the evening and watch tv. I have changed the colors three times and think I have the right ones now. Without a big stash I couldn't mix and match new combinations. Happy quilting and weaving to you. :)

:-D :-D

Soooooo AWESOME.... quite the nice guy. My husband doesn't worry too much about my hobbies, so long as I pay for them...lol. And I don't worry about his... so long as he pays for them! (His is powerboats!). Some of our guys are just wonderful, now aren't they?

Awwwww...you are lucky and I so am I!! I wouldn't trade my Guy for nothing!! We are in the process of finishing our basement to have a finished bathroom, laundry room and craft area. I keep stating we need to focus the money elsewhere, but he keeps saying I need a space of my own and he knows how happy that would make me :-)
