    Congrats on the new machine. Your husband sounds like a real peach! I like the idea of the boxers too. Enjoy your new machines and keep us posted on the 350 embroidery machine. I have been eyeing it for some time but haven't decided. Would love to know what you think of it once you use it a while.

    Your money, your choice to buy whatever you feel like .. Since he said you could do with it whatever you wanted; so you did ... and got a bargain too !

    If it was me, I would embroder a quilt and give it to your dh to give to his daughter to auction on ebay to help the financial situation. One it would show your support for him helping her, two it would show him the value of the machine and three give you the pleasure of knowing you are one in helping his daughter.

    You have a special hd who thinks as much of you as he does his dd. Plus it would let her know you care. Which is always a plus.

    Good luck. And have fun with your new machines.

    Well the fact that he told you to do whatever you wanted with the money is good enough. IMHO no need to explain that you bought two instead of one. Remember he said "whatever you want to do with it".

    I agree with Lisa. You sound happy about your purchases, and he told you to do what you wanted. You go girl!!!

    Sounds like he didn't care what you did with the money.
    I think you got a great deal and spent it wisely.
