They all work for me. I wish I had taken up quilting before retirement, but then again, I have more fabric than I have time to quilt. I do love the creative aspects of it and it does keep me focused and I am learning all the time so the brain is still engaged.
My DH is much like yours when he does go shopping with me. Thanks for the info it is great

1. It insulates the cupboard where it is kept.
...
2. It keeps the "economy" moving, it is my duty to support cotton farmers, textile mills and fabric shops.
3. It is less expensive and more fun than psychiatric care.
4. It's a contest - the one who dies with the most fabric wins.
5. It keeps without refrigeration, you don't have to cook it to enjoy it, you'll never have to feed it, change it, wipe it's nose or walk it.
6. Like dust, it's good for "protecting" previously empty spaces in the house, like the ironing board, laundry basket, the dining room table etc.
7. It's not immoral, illegal or fattening. It calms the nerves, gratifies the soul and makes me feel good.
8. Because it's on "SALE."
9. Because I'm worth it.
10. And buy it now, before your husband retires and goes with you on all your shopping expeditions (I actually like when hubby goes with me, he "makes" me buy things I think are too extravagant.)
