I don't hide anything from my husband either. Just last night I was telling him how so many QB members hide their fabric from their spouses.
He said he wonders what kind of marriage they have if they feel the need to keep secrets.

Sorry--this just really bothers me and gets me on my soapbox! Don't mean to offend anyone.
If I do sneak things in its mostly because I am a bit embarrassed that I am hoarding again lol not that he cares much.

How many of you DON'T have to hide your stash from your DH?

My sewing room is totally dismantled right now and DH is on his way to OSH to see about finding the perfect metric screw for a cabinet foot. Last night we went to the different stores looking for a new TV for the sewing room. "I just want you to be happy" was his answer when I asked him why he was being so pushy about getting it done. He is such a sweetheart.
Hiding stash? Only if it's a surprise for him.

if i had to hide my purchases from my dh, i would soon be hiding me from my dh and he wouldn't be so d.
dh and i have expensive hobbies and we spend what we want to and can at the time. no questions asked, no answers offered.
we'll soon be going to the new england quilt show in manchester, new hampshire and staying in the hotel that the show is in. he has things to do all lined up and we'll meet for dinner each night.
the last day, he'll join me and see the best of the quilts.
in return i go to fishing shows with him. boooooring. but i go.
