When my husband complains about the sewing noise, I tell him to go get a sleep study so he can quit snoring. My machine doesn't even drown out the noise. LOL!

Amen! My DH snores so loud, he would not know if my machines were running or not! Bootsie

Rapture, I love it,. I agree, they should 'just deal with your hobby.' My DH is a very very light sleeper, but he really doesn't complain, I think he doubts if it would do much good if he did.
