Starts the story of "my" new machine.... My DH worked on a shirt for me for over 2 hours on Saturday. It is the cutest shirt with "Fishing Tweets" on the front of it. He clipped all the jumper threads as it changed colors (all 28 thread changes!) and then clipped all the threads off the back. I'll wear it on Tuesday (the the Strippers & Hookers meeting) so I can show off his handiwork to them too. By the way...it's "My" new machine but the DH has made all but one of the projects on it so far. He really enjoys relaxing this way it seems. He is such a sweet lovable guy....I'm soooo dang lucky. Smiling while he "worked" [ATTACH=CONFIG]136328[/ATTACH] Clipping the back threads off so it looks nice [ATTACH=CONFIG]136329[/ATTACH] Showing off his hard work [ATTACH=CONFIG]136330[/ATTACH] |
The shirt is so cute...DH looks like he is enjoying himself!
|
Tell him GREAT job- now he has to be nice and share :wink:
|
How nice you may need two machines!
|
What a lucky lady you are to have such a wonderful Crafty husband. Great work Hubby! Hope you get to play with your new machine someday! LOL
|
OK keep him working and but lots of things to put them on. YOu ahve a business starting and just think about it a minute, it's your machine, but think of what you can get done while he is on it. ROFL. You are soooooooo lucky.
|
great job ! He's a keeper...........Michele
|
Thats so sweet! What a guy. Cute too!
|
I really like thos Embroidery Library patterns!!
|
Wow, are you ever lucky! I would LOVE it if my husband enjoyed quilting or embroidery. Your DH did a great job.
|
He IS a DH! I detect a little smugness in that grin?
|
Very pretty!!
|
Oh what a nice embroidery design...nice job hubby...and yes he is cute...
|
Very fortunate to have a hubby that enjoys your quilting passion.
|
LOL...thanks for the comments. He is away quite a bit so he gets first dibs on the machine when he gets home. He did 3 shirts for our DGD's birthday on Saturday also. She was 2 so it was good ones to practice on.
He's a little "woolie" right now, he is usually pretty clean cut but this winter has been so cold he wanted some head insulation. |
How cute is that? Maybe I should break my DH in on the embroidery machine. Don't know if he could be as creative as you DH. We would have to get more design cards.
|
You are so lucky!! I'm jealous!!He did a great job!
|
Don't ya just love it when the guys fall in love with our "women's tools" and turn out to be pretty darn good at them!
Okay.......only if there's space and equipment enough that they don't get under *our* feet, LOL, but still.....! :-D Jan in VA |
Looks like you got a keeper, both in the shirt and the DH.
|
You are a very lucky lady
|
great job...I could keep him busy...You will be tooo cute with your new shirt...Maybe I should teach my hubby how to hoop and embroider...
|
I was going to go with a very basic machine but ohhh no... he pointed to the other one and said "we want that one".... and there lies the tale.
Nasty outside this weekend so at least he wasn't just watching TV. http://www.emblibrary.com/EL/default.aspx as some of the cutest designs and are pretty reasonable. |
great job!
|
What a guy! What a great job!!
|
Great job! Hubby is a keeper!!
|
what a cutie!!!
after reading your posts... I think maybe I can get my DH interested in such... maybe he will buy me a machine :D :D :D LOL! I will be bookmarking this to show him :D |
Nothing better than seeing an embroidery design come to life! Does he do the stabilizing part also?

Here's the other pictures I snapped of him working hard.
Found out the 2 yr of DGD walked around this morning pointing on her shirt "Wook...Woody" from Toy Story. She kept telling her mommy & daddy to wook at her shirt for about 20 minutes. She loves Woody and everything is for boys so we bought the online download from Brother and tada, she had her Woody. being patient [ATTACH=CONFIG]162887[/ATTACH] busted having fun [ATTACH=CONFIG]162888[/ATTACH] |
Nice shirt!
|
Great he likes to do things for you. When they are involved in our hobbies they understand some of the things we do and enjoy.
|
He's so dang proud of himself, isn't he. Well, he should be too. Do you suppose he will let you have a turn anytime soon?LOL
|
That is just so cute! Sounds like you have an awesome hubby!
|
Men love gadgets and your DH loves this little number you have! So nice to have someone as excited as you are about sewing!
|
Nice - shirt an DH too :-)
I think you are going to have to get your own machine LOL |
Cute shirt, and Hubby is "Teddy Bear" cute.
