Oohing and Aahing is right! That is very nice. GFG isn't a favorite of mine but I sure like yours! I like it a lot.

Then he says, "looks like you are almost done, do you think you could finish this and make another one with the same fabrics but smaller pieces, kind of a mini replica for our granddaughter to have this fall?"

Since he is so supportive and never questions my fabric shopping or anything I just smiled and said, well they do take a while so I'm not sure when I'll finish, but I'll work on that after I finish this one.

Sometimes their hearts are so in the right place you just can't scold them.

Lovely colors and I agree with above posts, it does look good with darker color behind it. Hubbys just don't have a clue. Mine keeps asking when I'm going to get done. Never!!!

What a sweetie. Maybe he should help you by taking care of the house and cooking while you work straight through. LOL.

It's a mystery to me how DH can see me sewing for such a l-o-n-g time on a project and then ask me to "quick make one for so-and-so" by next week. HUH????????

He does it with my crocheted items too. I spent many long hours crocheting a very intricate doily from thread and when I gave it to my cousin at Christmas time DH actually made the statement, "Oh, she just whips these things out in a few hours". Certainly made my precious gift turn into something very small.
