    Wow what a wonderful husband you have. It is a pleasure to read about a couple that are so in tune to each other. My DH is also a wonderful guy. He will take me to hunt for fabric etc. However he usually waits outside in the car or does other errands.

He always has my wants at the top of his list of things to take care of as I have his at the top of mine. He even listens patiently while I share with him the wonderful and funny things I read here. He is definitley a keeper.
    I Swedish Weave also. Have made hundreds of stuff. I have about 3 big tote bags and 4 or 5 plastic crates of yarn. DH knew I like yarn so he bought me 2 skeins to put in my Christmas Stocking. Then he realized how much I already had! LOL

    It showed how much he cares for you and you can never have enough yarn. I just started another afghan to work on while we sit together in the evening and watch tv. I have changed the colors three times and think I have the right ones now. Without a big stash I couldn't mix and match new combinations. Happy quilting and weaving to you. :)

    :-D :-D

    Soooooo AWESOME.... quite the nice guy. My husband doesn't worry too much about my hobbies, so long as I pay for them...lol. And I don't worry about his... so long as he pays for them! (His is powerboats!). Some of our guys are just wonderful, now aren't they?

    Awwwww...you are lucky and I so am I!! I wouldn't trade my Guy for nothing!! We are in the process of finishing our basement to have a finished bathroom, laundry room and craft area. I keep stating we need to focus the money elsewhere, but he keeps saying I need a space of my own and he knows how happy that would make me :-)
