My SO has never minded going to fabric stores, and is usually a good help when there. We were up at Lolly's, (Shipsawanna) earlier today and I found 3 fabrics I really liked, but didn't see anything else right away. Next thing I know, here he comes with a bunch of bolts that he had gone around the store gathering up to see if any would work
And 2 of them was just what I needed
He's a keeper, and oh yeah, a pretty good guy with the vacuum cleaner.

I must be blessed. My husband locates quilt stores for me! He drives me to them, carries bolts of fabric around, pays for what I purchase, and puts it in the car. When we get home, he even washes my fabric! He is the greatest!

I don't, generally, take my hubby along. He hates waiting around. There have been a couple of times he is along because we are doing errands together. When that happens I know what I want, get it and go. If I want to browse or have to look for "just the right" fabric I go alone. He never has any objection to what I purchase so I don't feel guilty or need to hide what I buy. He goes alone, most of the time, when he wants to purchase fishing supplies. Although some of those containers in the tackle store are great for storage of small items.

My hubby goes with me and HE ends up buying more than I do!! He is very generous to get me anything I want. I have to be very careful to not say anything about something or else he buys it for me and we are not rich!! I keep trying to explain that to him. He is definately a keeper in more ways than one.

Prissinboots, I admire your playful relationship with your husband. And I immediately understood the "buy it for the articles" remark. If my husband and I are traveling, he willing goes to fabric shops with me. But at home, we both prefer for me to go without him. Anyway, I'm surprised at some of the responses you've received.

I'm lucky, the ladies at Mary Jo's give my husband a hard time too! It's all in fun and he plays along with it too.
I think some folks are taking the word "punishment" too dang seriously.
