I am really impressed! You must be a good wife, or he wouldn't do all these things for you! Congratuations, and many, many more good years between you...

These are beuatiful! My BF is working on a peg board for me today. What a sweetheart they are.

DonnaC 09-26-2012 06:36 AM

You're a lucky lady and he's an awesome gentleman!

My hubby is so un-handy that I'm always teasing him that my second husband is going to be a handyman! His most redeeming feature though is that he never says anything about what I spend on my hobbies or the amount of fabric that he sees.

You are truly blessed to have such a talented hubby who knows how much you enjoy creating and he is able to help you with wonderfully crafted additions to make your work easier.

Wow, I like a lot, gives me some ideas. I like the spool thing for ribbon and lace. Might have to do one of these.

Sheila_H 09-26-2012 09:03 AM

This is another item that my DH made for me a long time ago. He has made many for friends of ours. I find it very handy when I am piecing a quilt. I have a miniature Con Air spray iron that I love and it is great for this board. I set the board right beside my machine and when I am thru using it, I put the protective cover on it and put it up. It is great for taking to the quilt guild. When the ironing boards are in use, it sure is handy.

Hope you like it.

You scored big time with your husband! Mine is proud of what I make, but doesn't look for 'gifts of love' like yours does. I guess we all have our talents, but your husband's really sing to me!

MattieMae 09-26-2012 12:16 PM

You definitely should ramp up production of those goodies and sell them at craft shows. Throw in some quilt ladders, ruler holders and bird houses and you'll fund your next vacation. ~:)

Can understand why you are not sharing him but it is so nice of you to share his talents with the pictures! We can then show them to our DHs and ask them to put their talents to use, too. Thank you for sharing your DH's great work!

It's wonderful when our dear hubbies support our addictions! Great ideas!

captlynhall 09-26-2012 04:31 PM

He's a sweetheart to do all those wonderful things for you. It is nice that he appreciates your love of quilting.

Twinkie, I am lucky like you are as my husband is handy also. I have a cabinet in my craft/computer room that he made. I think it measures 5' high and 4' wide has 4 deep shelves and need I say they are stuffed full of material, crafts, books, etc. The top is full of a display of my teddy bears as I collect them. Yes, hubby keeps my machines in working order also. I just got a new Singer Quantrum 9960 and guess who got in the box before I did. Our thing here with the grandchildren if something breaks they say "take it to Pawpaw he can fix it". No not for rent or for sale either.

What an awesome guy!! That hoop for road trips is amazing! He should patent it.

danece 09-26-2012 08:39 PM

He is a keeper, he thinks about what you need and then creates it for how, very sweet of him to try to make your life easier

maryellen2u 09-26-2012 09:22 PM

I just love your husband! What I wouldn't give for a man like that! I think he could sell these items in a heart beat and be a very wealthy man! I wish you would post pictures of your avatar quilt for all of us to ohh and ahh over. Thanks!

nycquilter 09-27-2012 03:57 AM

one word and only one word to describe him: KEEPER

and you are a very lucky woman who I'm certain really really deserves a husband of this caliber.

MonaMcC 09-27-2012 08:55 AM

Think he would consider doing some Husband Training Seminars?!

twinkie 09-27-2012 10:54 AM

That is so cute, I'm sure he would consider it. He can fix anything also. I am so very blessed.
