Hi all
My wife is a quilter and I just enjoy picking material and consulting on patterns.

I have lots of fun at quilt shops chatting withthe ladies. Many of them are surprised with my color choices and knowledge.

Quilt shows are the best!

My husband also likes to help me with picking out fabric and patterns and also helps me with the cutting out of my fabrics.

He even goes to the LQS to get fabric for me!

When I was traveling on business, I would often stop at Quilt stores and pick up templates and rulers etc. Got to the point where I would go back to a store and they would remember me because so few men ever went in.

Hello, and welcome from Idaho!
Congratulations on your assistant's job. My late husband was color blind and could pick fabulous color combinations. I have never figured out how he did it. Have fun!!!

Welcome Baldy. My husband is also an assistant quilter. He helps me with planning the actual quilt lines and collecting/restoring vintage machines. It is fun to have hobbies that you can share with your spouse.

Your wife is so lucky to have a husband like you who takes a real interest in her quilting. My DH usually sits in the car with a cup of coffee and a book. May in Jersey

Hi Baldy! Welcome from Nebraska. My husband doesn't get too involved in the fabrics etc. but he is a wonderful engineer and is always doing things to make my quilting world more comfortable and easier to use. He's also very supportive of my desire to partake in this hobby and THAT means the world to me! Bless your heart, I bet your wife thinks you're a keeper too.
