We have to have great husbands to put up with our "stash" so why would we even think of trading them? On the flip side, wonder if he would trade me in for a ticket to Nascar?

Back story...picked hubby up at wallyworld 14 years ago...always tease him about taking him back as they have a liberal return policy!!

I got mine at Kresge. I'll keep him. Way too hard to train another after 36 years of marriage.

Good for you!!! Just goes to show that quilting women know when one is a keeper and when one isn't. I waited for a keeper to come along and he finally did. 24 years later and I'm with the majority here saying that a good DH is better than any stash!

Aurora 07-24-2011 09:18 AM

Gave him away a long time ago.

The stash could go.....presenting a fine opportunity to go shopping. :lol: I wouldn't have much luck husband hunting at my age.

peaceandjoy 07-24-2011 09:26 AM

People win over things every time.

As far as tolerating my stash - well, let's just say he has way more "stuff" than I do. Last week I found him taking knots of bits of string, then tying them end to end into a long piece and rolling it into a ball. Just an example...

Now, if something happened and I them, I sure as heck don't plan to replace him. But my stash would have to be replaced for sure.

I have had my dh longer than I have had my stash. I will definately keep him.

CristyK1 07-24-2011 09:37 AM

Heck I wouldn't trade my $12 shoes for my stash. ITs that patheic.

But I'd not give up my hubby for anything in the world. I love him too much.

I've had my hubby for 31 years, he all broke in, just the way I like him. Just like a good sewing machine, lol....No sense in trading him in now, LOL.

babyboomerquilter 07-24-2011 09:55 AM

Keep my DH and dump the stash!

Katts 14 07-24-2011 10:26 AM

Keep the husband Keep's me in stash because I use his stach to buy More!!!!!

RobertaMarie 07-24-2011 10:43 AM

My hubby comes before anything!! He is irreplaceable and I have had him much longer than anything else (59+ years).Without him, I would have nothing, and would not feel all the love I feel now. God bless my dear husband.

twixbar 07-24-2011 10:45 AM

Definately keep husband (he has the checkbook lol)

BarbaraSue 07-24-2011 10:58 AM

I'd keep the husband.

While some fabrics are priceless and not replaceable d/t out of production, his parents are both gone and he couldn't be made to order when I thought I was ready for him. good thing I already have him:)

charlotte37830 07-24-2011 11:26 AM

Most definately would keep hubby. He's my best friend.

madamekelly 07-24-2011 11:41 AM

Exactly my thought.

sheria 07-24-2011 12:13 PM

Hubby stays!

theresa.redington 07-24-2011 01:16 PM

I would keep my husband because then I can start a new stash :lol:

akisan 07-24-2011 01:32 PM

I can never give up my husband since he is my better half.

georgiat 07-24-2011 01:36 PM

Hubby. He's my best friend! Of course I also tell him that if I ever get rid of him I'm not getting another! : )

RDM 07-24-2011 01:42 PM

Keep husband, you can always buy more fabric but hard to find a good man. Mine supports my creative process.

Pat75 07-24-2011 01:59 PM

For 53 years he has been a keeper.I would cry when i said goodbye to my stash.

BettyGee 07-24-2011 02:10 PM

My husband! He is my best friend, my lover, my playmate and he makes me happy just being him.

Glenda m 07-24-2011 02:13 PM

I would keep the DH. It took to long to train him. LOL

CarolinePaj 07-24-2011 02:16 PM

He is the best.... I would not trade him for the world!

He supports my quilting addiction with good grace!

Hugs

Oh, definitely my DH. BUT, which would YOU choose?

This Hubby - 2nd time around is a keeper. However - had you asked me this question when the first husband was around - I probably would have given him up for a Fat Quarter.
