    My husband refers to my looking at fabric on the internet as Fabric Porn. He is home during the day so my parcels are not secret. My LQS purchases - they just kind of float in of their own accord. . . .

    My husband never asks what I bought or how much I spent.
    If he knows I am going after something specific, he might ask
    if I found what I was looking for. He never says anything about
    what I buy; kinda like you we both know what we can spend
    and what we can't. The only time I ask him is if I give him a blank check and I ask how much so I know what to enter in
    the check register.

    No sneaking here. DH usually helps pic out fabric. Nothing to get $100 of fabric with sales. Plus He carries it all in the house for me. I truly married a gem of 37 yrs!!

    No sneaking here. He goes with me to buy fabrics and I go with him to buy his wood.

    No hiding here. Figure I've got lots to buy to make up for the new Harley he bought himself last year. LOL

    I go to work everyday. Need I say more? No guilt here about what I buy so no sneaking anything in.

    I don't hide it. He does say "Do you need that much--again"
    Of course I need it. I have this "project" I'm working on. I also
    buy "some" him. I bought 8 yds. of an Indian print recently . I made him a vest, but the rest is mine for quilting.
