I call my husband Mr. Wonderful! He only complains when I get carried away with material. He is very supportive in most anything when it comes to Featherweights. I currently have 5 Featherweights and when he sees me looking at another, he looks also and can point out some flaws I may over look. He is just "Mr. Wonderful". :P

My DH is quite happy touring LQS so long as we include "lunch" somewhere. He always attracts attention in these stores because he is usually wearing a lovely hand knitted jumper. Someone always comments on the knitting and asks if I made it and I have to confess "Oh no, I don't knit. He made it himself."

He also cross-stitches and does sashiko of an evening while I have some hand-sewing to do in front of the T.V. together.

If I have machine sewing to do in my sewing room, he changes the T.V. over to car racing which I hate to watch.

We are both happy!

My husband came to my rescue last year. I ran out of material while making table runners for Christmas gifts. The store I had purchased the material from was out. So he
drove me to several different stores in town, even taking me
to other towns in search of the material I had to have to
complete my project. He waited in each store while I did my search. (the weather was cold and nasty) Can't get any better than that. I'm so thankful for my husbands support
in my quilting projects. Betty Lee

My hubby, Rich is the best. He never asks how much I spend on my quilting, sewing or other hobbies. He loves to see my projects. Just this last July he attended the Sisters 35th Outdoor Quilt Show with me. We are going next year....his suggestion. In fact, he said that we need to spend a couple of more days next year than we did this year. He never complains when I want to stop at quilt shops while we are on vacation. When we start the day he will ask if there are any quilt, craft or Christmas shops on our agenda for the day. I've had him for over 37 years and I do believe he's a keeper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mine did that for me once (actually more than once, but for this story...) We drove off the interstate nearly 18 mi, then all around an average sized city, finally found the street --- no shop! Not even a neighbor store to ask about it. Finally got thru on the phone (# had been busy for 20+min) & got a recording that the shop had closed!! :-( GRR-RRRRRR!!!!!! The best part, was DH didn't complain anymore than I did! LOL We're always a little leary now when the shop is in QTC too far off our route. Now we call first just to make sure! :thumbup:

My DH is my motivater when it comes to sewing. If I am using my Embroidery machine he is right there watching it. After a while he will say "That still amazes me" and I will tell him that I have been doing it for several years and it still amazes me!!.

Happy Anniversary!! :D

All I can add is " congratulaions " to all of you who have these wonderful men in your life.
To the others whose husbands are negative, mentally abusive, non-supportive...please, either get help or get out...time will neither improve your situation nor change him. I had one of those; after more than 37 years of marriage, I became a widow more than ten years ago and quite frankly, my life is so good now; Living alone certainly has its drawbacks and complications, but the peace is worth it

I also have an AWESOME hubby!
He can and does fix/make anything and everything. He convinced me to purchase the Long Arm this last April(it is so fun), he made my design wall, My sewing machine foot fell apart he fixed it. He never says a word about fabric purchases, and is very helpful with suggesting a color or help in choosing of colors when I am stumped. If I am not understanding something in direction I can usually give it to him and he will figure it out for me. He is after me now to purchase a new sewing machine, but I think I like my "OLD Kenmore"one STILL (it needs to see a Dr. though), will see what happens.
We do Archery together, Wood Working, Gardening, yard work, have refurnished cars,actually many things. Though, he is not a "Flower Giving"( like was mentioned in an earlier post "Flowers-They just die so why" )type of guy I would not switch him for the World! (I grow my own flowers and have tons of flowerbeds.)If I mention something I need or want it's typical of him to say let's go get it, make it or something similar.
I always try to stop sewing by the time he is home from work or shortly after and the kids have come home unless it is something that really needs to be done.
He is Awesome.

I'm just so thrilled to have that wonderful man, that I try not to sew much when I have him at home. I'm very blessed that he would understand, though, if I said I'd really like to get something done. I do sit with him while he watches the occasional football game, but I hand quilt all the while. Once I get going on sewing, I hate to stop, and I would probably forget what or who was most important.
