this reminds me of the story of the lady that had sewn and quilted for many years and had her whole house cluttered with many bolts and yardage of fabric. When she decided to open up her own quilt shop, her husband was THRILLED!!! He built shelves, painted, helped her with everything!!!! when he was done (so he thought) with the store he began to pack up her stash of fabric into boxes and into the truck, the wife asked what he was doing. The husband replied that he was just helping her move her fabric to her new shop. The wife had to explain to him that she had ordered a WHOLE new shipment of fabric for the store and she was NOT getting rid of her personal stash.
This is a true story that reminds me of my self and my husband, except for the fact of i do not have a quilt shop yet.
