My Quilted Patio
 
1 Attachment(s)
I just had to share this. DH has been making a little area for me to sit out in next year. of course he didnt tell me what design he was going to do it in..and low and behold I got such a surprise when I saw the finished article. He decided to put quilt stars on it..as he said, I had got so much pleasure from my quilting in the last year, he decided to do a matching design for me..I thought it was really sweet:D What do you all think??

I'd say your loved and adored by your sweet DH. Have fun sewing out there :)

irishphoenix 09-15-2012 02:41 PM

Thanks everyone- yes he is lovely, and very thoughtful. he knows how much pleasure I get out of quilting for the last year and wanted to make somewhere for me to sit out in the summer. I had no idea he was putting quilting stars out though! I should have twigged though, as I was making a baby quilt with these patterns on it and he was taking a great interest in the stars but said nothing at the time lol he must have just filed it away for future use lol
He really is a keeper!

mike'sgirl 09-15-2012 02:44 PM

Just goes to show that there are still good men in the world. He did a great job too.

QultingaddictUK 09-15-2012 04:04 PM

Your DH is definitely a keeper, unless you can earn some pennies, for fabric, for loaning him out :)

alfosa421 09-15-2012 04:12 PM
