And congrats on the wonderful marriage.

My DH totally enables me especially when it comes to vintage sewing machine and gadgets. He even bought some fabric before but it was online through ebay. He is not big on going shopping except for stuff he really likes.

My husband goes with me sometimes and he goes to quilt shows with me. He generally makes me spend more than I would if he was not there. He picks out fabric and quilt kits and sometimes he even pays for them. Now I just need him to put up those shelves!!!

I don't believe in hiding anything from my spouse or he in hiding anything from me. I'm just glad that we both believe in being honest with each other in all things. I believe thats why we are still married after almost 21 years together.

I don't care what my husband thinks I am not a child. He and I discussed this hobby of mine and we settled on a budget. If I can't afford something, I don't buy it. But I still make him aware of the charges so he can balance his budget. Ceegee

What wonderful DH's we have, to sit and wait patiently in a car while we stop at this or that fabric shop! Teehee* I had planned on stopping at the fabric store again tonite, but my car wouldn't start, so into the service department we go tomorrow! It would of cost less to go the fabric store!
