I was going to make this quilt and hubby kept saying he wanted to sew. I figured this would be good to start with since it's paper piecing. He really loved doing it and did very well with the 1/4 seams when it came time to sew the squares, borders and binding. He's been sandwiching and pinning my quilts for a while cause he does better than me. I guess it was time for him to have the fun of sewing too.

Great job! :mrgreen:

He did great! Paper piecing to start? I haven't tried that!

Very nice! I wish my DH would sew with me. He's much more creative than I am and I'm sure he'd come up with some really great ideas.

great job

Very nice quilt. You husband did a great job on his first quilt and hopefully it is a start of many more to come. Thanks for sharing.

How fun for you both! Great job!

:thumbup:

wow, it's very nice, indeed. you are so lucky to have a great helper

He looks very proud of his work, and he should be. Great job. I'll watch for more of his quilts. How fun to have a quilting partner right at home.

Great job!

Awesome!

Hope you have more than one machine. He did a great job. Did he quilt it too?

What a nice pic of your hubby, Linda!! I love that quilt he made. I have to show this to my DH so he can OOO & AHHH!

Linda, he did a great job. He can be very proud. He needs his own machine so you can have yours back!

Really a great quilt - I wish mine would start sewing.

Good job! It's so wonderful that he has decided to get into quilting.

Amazing--nice job! Good for you too! Although I love my hubby, I'm not sure I'm ready to share all my quilting goodies!

Linda your DH did a great job!! I have been sewing since I was in 8th grade...many..many...MANY years ago..PP'n hates me..I just can't seem to master it for some reason...tell him he did GREAT!! crafty_linda_b

Great Job! Love it.

Tell him congrats. It is wonderful

Tell him congrats. It is wonderful

Your DH did a great job on his first of (I'm sure) many to come. My Dad loved to sew the pieces together and then hand quilt them. My DH loves to shop for fabrics with me and he's more agressive in blending prints and colors - sweet because it's not my thing - I'm alot more conservative. Men certainly have a different look at things then us gals, I believe. And in our guild we have a few men that have joined us and they have helped others step out of their box. I love to sew, which I find very relaxing after a busy day at work and my DH has taken up cutting for me, which speeds me along to new projects - yeah but he has admitted that he doesn't care for the sewing part as much as I do! I also can't wait till I retire and have "more time" with DH in our gardening, hiking, camping and now working on projects together. Those that are retired give me hope for a wonderful retirement or as I call it "the next chapter in our lives".

Quilt pox is contagious!! and know known cure!! I wish him well!!

Your husband did a wonderful job.

Wow! Great job!

Oh, how nice to have an in-house quilting buddy. Could result in some great shopping trips too!

I'm impressed!!! Great job.

WOW..what a great job. Are you going to buy him his own machine now????

He did a great job! I've been quilting for a few years now and I still haven't tried paper piecing!

He did a great job! Love the quilt

awesome....a hubby who shares your addiction....

Tell hubby that he did a great job and his quilt is really cute.

Wish I could get my husband interested.

Good for him and you! My DH is my 'color consultant', which is helpful because I am 'color deficient"!

Very nice work, by the way.

You should be so proud of hubby. He did a fantastic job. Now i have to show this to my dh. Hope it works. LOL. HIs and her sewing tables.....sounds good to me.

What a great quilt! Fabulous work!
