WOW, makes me almost wish I had a husband...lol...not!!

What a Dear Husband. So Sweet.

OMG, what a surprise. Also love the table topper the two of you did together.

What a birthday!!!! You have a dream of a hubby & machine with table to come. Wow! Happy Dance tonight!!!!

What a nice machine and pretty table runner.

Happy B-day. I am so jealous.

Wow, you bring back memories...... One year (about 1945 or so, shortly after the war when things became available again) my dad took us out and we got my mother several of the "nicest" presents we could. My mom was absolutely quiet as we gave her each preseny.... until she began to cry. We kids gave her a wonderful big cookie jar (so she could/would make us cookies) and my Dad gave her an aluminum step ladder because the tall single-support wood fruit picking ladders were too heavy and too wobbly for her to use when washing windows around the house. She finally said something like she now understood how she fit into our lives... which just wasn't true. She was a wonderful, hard-working farmer/ranchers wife and was always there for all of us. Your kids are going to learn the same lesson of love from a much better angle. Lucky you and lucky your kids.

Happy Birthday and may you and Ruby have many happy hours together!!

What a man, I think he's a keeper.

You're blessed!
Vicky

Wow! What a present!!!!@(!#!@) Wow! What a husband!!! Yes, we are happy for you! No, we are not envious -- it can happen for us too!! lol..... :? :lol: :D 8-)

You guys are all so amazing! Thank you so much for sharing my joy! It makes it all that more special. I wish you could all come to visit and play with Ruby, I'd share...honest!

What a nice story. Enjoy your new machine and your hubby.

She is Pretty, and you are lucky twice fold. Hubby and machine !!! I can't imagine my husband ever going out and buying me a machine of any kind !!! lol, Auntie B in Saskatchewan.

Just gotta keep the hubbies that keep us happy quilting. Mine went to the super bowl this year and I got a bernina640 and embroidery module and digitizing software. I'm keeping him and the machine.

Congrats on the new machine...isn't it great when we have wonderful husbands....:-)

How wonderful! The 640 is a great machine and the embroidery is so much fun! When I am in embroidering mode, nothing that sits still is safe :lol: Let me know how you like the software, I had looked at it, but working full time, I don't know if I would have the time, or the patience to learn it. I know they have classes to learn it. My dealer always has them during the hours I work, drat!

I agree, we need to hang on to these treasures we have....oh...the husbands too! :lol:

Happy birthday. You are so lucky. He is definitely a keeper. Congrats

HaPpY Birthday lucky lady! What a remarkable gift from a doting dh.

Wonderful machine and wonderful hubby!!!!CONGRATS.

Awww what a sweet DH :D You and Ruby will have many good times together :D:D:D

I allway won"t a Bernina machine, some day I will have one too.
