I have taught my husband to sew a button on his shirt and to also iron them. I am happy with that. I don't think I would be able to teach him anything else. He is my Computer Geek & that makes him & me happy.

I've pointed out to my husband that his eye for precision and his enjoyment of "cool tools" he would enjoy cutting my fabric. I think I have to wait till he retires. Good for you....cutting is my least favoriite thing of quitlign.

He supports and encourages me when I'm trying new things in my quilting experience.

My hubby has a wonderful eye for color, texture and value in fabric. I love it when he comes with me to pick out fabric. We have alot of fun. He is not much into sewing but is excited to see the finished product especially when he helped pick the fabric.

I've been quilting for several years and I never thought my husband was terribly interested or appreciative of my hobby. That is, until out of the blue he bought me a brand spanking new Janome Horizon machine for Christmas. My sister said he asked her advice on which machine to get, but the idea was totally his. Then a couple of months ago, I ordered a Grace quilting frame and he had it assembled within a couple of hours after it was delivered. Actions speak louder than words! I guess I'll keep him around a bit longer - just in case I need any other "some assembly required" help....
