My husband understands. I may add that he is very creative (more so than me) but his creativity is in another area. He is also a very generous soul who loves when I give quilts away but he likes some for us too :D:D

My husband came from a family where women don't know that a needle is a tool to sew,So. it was a big shock to him to see me making clothes and knitted clothes for the family, When I started quilting , he could not understand cutting fabric and sewing it back together. When I discovered the Vermont Quilt Show, he drove me and every spring, he would ask when we were going to Vermont.Then offered me an electronic sewing machine. What I miss the most, was his way to tell me I love you .....because.....you old-fashioned!

My hubby is pretty good about my addiction. I think it's because he has his own hobbies and spends plenty of time and money on them as well. I always say that's what keeps us happy...our own interests and groups of friends! Now if I could only convince him that wallhangings are art quilts!!!

I am fortunate that DH supports my various hobbies. Several years ago when I was looking to buy a new machine he told me to buy a Bernina after testing driving one at a quilt show. He goes to quilt shows as well as accepts (and helps me find them!) that we will be stopping at a quilt shop whenever we travel. In return I support his deer hunting and horse back riding.

My hubby understands that if I'm happy I'm a lot easier to live with, and also my keeping busy means he never has to hear a whine about "golf widow". I'm one of the lucky ones.

Suzi, your baby is beautiful. Is it a poodle? So sweet.

[craftymatt2]Mine is very understanding, I could have worse vices
That's what I keep telling my husband. |
Yes my DH understands; he pokes his head in every now and then and checks in on me. He actually did the research and went "shopping" for my LA for Christmas. What a sweetie he is.
