After fifty years my DH has resigned himself to the fact that I'm a total nut when it comes to quilting and sewing. He has been very supportive and is the best at picking colors; he still doesn't understand "stash." I have three machines and a serger and while a long arm would be heaven I think at this point in my life and the fact that I probably should be in a home for deranged quilters, I'm not going to "rock the boat."
