    Default DH made me a ruler rack

    I showed him a photo of one and he wanted to try out his new router, so hey, presto! I have a new ruler rack, exactly the size I wanted, absolutely free. It has just enough slots to hold the rulers I use most often, and I keep a couple folders in the back (with a spare ruler behind to hold them up) that have instructions or notes for my current project. I love it! Now I'm thinking quilt rack, thread cone holder...

    Husbands are great for this kind of thing. Mine made me and several quilting friends some of these ruler holders a few years ago. He also made me several thread caddies. I think I'll keep him!

    I'm sure he'd love to make you more things! um ... if he ever gets bored you could ask him to carve me a husband.
