Husband punishment
#23
My husband is usually an enabler when I go fabric shopping because he spends more than I do on wood (he's a woodworker) and has a bigger stash than me. When I take him into a quilt shop, he usually just says "show me the man bench" and gives me time to shop. These days he doesn't even have to look at the old copies of " Field and Stream" because he carries a smartphone and surfs the web! We even make jokes about me "Farting" (Fabric Acquiring Road Trip), and him "Warting" ....LOL

I was in a mill ends fabric store recently - there was a gentleman sitting in the library area, reading his own book (not one of the quilt magazines). About an hour later, when I was at the cutting table, he came up to the woman ahead of me and asked with a smile "Are we in the home stretch now?" What a patient, gentle guy!

I have one of the very best .... he never says a word about my quilting purchasses - and i don't ask about hunting expenses....but best of all is his attitude about the house when i am on a sewing binge....."if it bothers you, you can write you name in the dust..... just don't date it". Love that man of mine !!!!

I was out of town when our quilt store had a fat quarter sale. I made of list of the colors I wanted and showed my hubby my stash so he could see the kind of material I like. I sent him to the quilt store. He came home with beautiful fabric that I would have picked myself. The ladies at the quilt store are still talking about how lucky I am to have a hubby that would do that. He loves going to the fabric stores with me and ofen makes suggestions when I am making a project and often I go with his idea.

My DH has always encouraged and cheered me on when it comes to my hobbies and he never tells me what to spend.... that said, I love the way the original poster jokes with her DH... as I do with mine..... it shows that they not only share life, but a sense of humor!
Just got to work out a way of letting him know I want a long arm and they don't really sell them here in the UK.... (shipping could be high - LOL).
Hugs to all
