A little over a month ago I posted a picture of my DH and his 10th quilt top. Thanks to ladybugnana and confederate rose, who kindly sent him a sack full of bobbins for his machine, he has now finished five more tops. He is averaging one each week. I can tell you it has made my life easier too. I have prewound them and placed them in a box next to his machine. Since he can't get his fingers in there good to put them in, all I have to do is take one out and pop it in and he's OFF. He asked me to acknowledge these ladies for their thoughtfulness in helping with this delima. Although he still can't or won't fill a bobbin, This has helped tremendously. Here is his 14th top. Thanks ladies.

Great team work! Winding and changing bobbins is a small price to pay for such lovely quilts.

That's fantastic! I tried to get my Hubster to quilt once. He made it halfway through a quilt and won't finish it. Oh well.
Your Hubster did a fantastic job on this quilt...now I have to go and look to find his other quilts! :)
