What a thoughtful guy!
|
Lucky Lady you have a keeper
|
Yep, he is a keeper. I think you should make him a quilt also.
|
He's a 'keeper' for sure! All men ought to take note!
Blessings, MaryAnna |
Wow! You are truly blessed! What a great job he did in pckintg out fabric too!
|
What a sweetie - aren't surprises fun once in awhile!! Give him a big hug!
|
What a nice guy - many people wish they had someone like that!
|
Wow, does he give lessons to other husbands.
|
He's a keeper!!! My DH gets a glassy eyed look if I ask to stop at a fabric store!
|
what a good husband lol
|
he's a keeper
|
What a great gesture on hubbys part. He is a keeper as they say!
|
He picked out some nice fabrics! What a thoughful guy, that was really nice of him.
|
I was in my own WM a couple of days ago and they had the same thing, 5 dollar bolts, BUT every single one of them were stretchy and would not make a good quilt.
Darn, I'll have to go back and see what they are doing now. Maybe when they get rid of the stretchy stuff they'll put out the woven cottons. |
Definitely blessed, I think that made up for the iron incident. :-D
|
Today he sent me to WM to get two more bolts. The only catch was I have to use it to make costume for my DS. This is the last year our Police Athletic League will be able to use the abandoned hospital for their "Haunted Hospital" fund raiser. My son is one of the star attractions each year and he wants me to make him a costume. So I guess I'll be working on this for a few days before going back to work next week.
I tried to corner the store manager to let him know how pleased I was that they had SOME material in the store. |
Oh what a thoughtful hubby.
|
That's so sweet of him! And he did a pretty good job on fabric choices!
|
We were at Walmart yesterday in a different state and saw 3 of those same fabrics at the same price!!! If we hadn't been traveling I would have bought some too! Loved the green and pink ones!!
|
that is sweet, high five to youe husband.
|
Yes, you are blessed!
|
What a sweet thing for him to do! You were obviously in his thoughts!
|
awe he sounds like a sweetie!!
i have heard so many people say they bought 5yards for 5.00 but our walmart doesnt do that and when i asked they said they never heard of it ?? |
how thoughtful and sweet, good fabric choices too. pat on back for DH
|
Very Sweet!! Okay...I guess he can be forgiven now right? LOL :D

Now mind you, I have not finished my first top that I am working on but he has been so supportive. After leaving Lowes he went to get a few things from Wal-Mart. While there he discovered two 6ft tables covered with bolts of fabric, each bolt had 5 yards and they were priced at $5.00 per bolt. He picked out 6 bolts and brought them home to me with the scissors. He had heard me complain (to no end) about Wal-Mart discontinuing their fabric the only quilting items my Wal-Mart carries is scissors, some thread and small cutting mats. He was so excited when he returned home with all of it. And he called my co-worker's wife who is a quilter to let her know about the fabric as well. I guess this makes up for loaning out my iron that still hasn't come home. I am truly blessed. |
How sweet..Mine would never think of doing anything like that! He might would get the scissors but fabric now way! If he did I could only imagine what it would look like!
|
He picked out some great looking fabrics!!! Wonderful guy, a definite "keeper"!!! Congrats!
|
What a sweet Husband, don't you love it when they do something so sweet. Happy Quilting.
|
be careful to use a cool iron on that fabric from Walmart It will melt on hot. It does wash and dry great tho. Great DH!
|
keep him...he's a work in progress! :D

And that was so sweet of your husband.
On a happier note, I bought a really nice craft table from Walmart last winter. It had a few dings on it, but nothing that effects its use, so I asked the clerk if the price could be reduced because of the damage. She called her store manager, who asked me what I wanted to pay. So I told her a price that was about 25% off - and got it at that price! What amazed me is that Walmart bargained with me. I do love the craft cabinet, too, because the working surface height is perfect for cutting on! |
What a great husband!! Lovely fabrics!!!!!

I agree! Never had a problem ironing any/all fabric from Walmart yet! And I've bought many yards! |
Wow! Are you ever lucky!
|
My husband would have bought the cheapest scissors he could find, IF I had sent him for some. NEVER would have thought of material. Now, mind you, he never has a problem with me picking out material, nor buying what I "need" for sewing! (I work and spend my own money...not his!) But he'd never think of just picking something nice up for me. Even birthday and Christmas..he might ask would I like this or that, but not spontaneously pick something up. The first year we were together he bought me an Army sargeant's jacket for Christmas from Goodwill!!! Now you see?? LOL!
|
What a great guy! You really are blessed.
|
Wow..hubby did a grreat job on the picking out the fabrics and that is so Thoughtful of him :thumbup: to have had you on his mind!
|
DH has wonderful taste. Love the fabric. Can always use extra scissors.
