Do you hide

Thee and me, Onebyone! This is the 21st century, for goodness sake. I ran for school board several years ago and when we were placing yard signs, it astounded me that some women whom I knew supported me, had to ask their husband's permission to display a sign. I lost the election, but I learned so much about 21st century husband/wife relationships that I am still appalled. froggyintexas

Beadywoman, I totally agree. I had a friend once that hid everything because of fear, yet her husband bought anything he wanted, there are those marriages and it isn't funny, but for the most part this is a fun thread, even though I say so myself.lol
My husband was the one that started me buying yardage for quilts instead of using scraps of clothing etc, to quilt with, so he is to blame.hehehehehe

My neighbor has been de-stashing, so she brings me tubs and tubs of fabric as she goes through it. I wash all of my fabric, so for the past few days I've been washing, drying, pressing if necessary, and folding it onto comic boards. Since I am washing all of my newly acquired stash from my neighbor, I decided to wash some other fabrics I already had. It turned into quite a drawn out process. My husband asked me yesterday, "is the fabric that just came in the mail (since I just received a package from TQG)?" I laughed and told him no, it is the fabric from my neighbor and some I had in my sewing room closet. I guess he was getting worried!

My husband is an enabler. He is a math PhD, and sometimes takes blocks that I have laid out on the table and changes them around to something he would like better. Usually it is something that is impossible to do with those particular blocks. Later I put them together like I had planned and he never says anything about it. He loves my quilts, especially the ones with geometric patterns.
In our town, lots of couples go grocery shopping together, especially on Tuesday morning when seniors get 5% off. We have a lot of Hispanics here, and they often go shopping as a family. When DH and I go shopping, he takes his cart and I take mine. Sometimes I drop something into his cart if I see him as we walk around. When I'm finished, I get out my cell phone and call him on his. Then we go check out together. That cell phone is a God-send.
