What do you do when....
#1
Ok doing my first quilt I spent a LOT of time working on it, all nighters ect. So when I finished the top I started cutting my second. Now my wife is saying I am spending too much time doing this. So what do you do when your spouse says...your spending too much time quilting?
Thank you for any suggestions

It's just like anything else in a marriage - balance and compromise are key! Everyone can get what they want, you just need to work together to figure out what that is and how to get there.
I quilt in the living room with my husband. I'm planning to move my sewing all upstairs shortly, with part of the room being dedicated to my husband's musical instruments (he's a musician and music teacher) so he can practice while I quilt.
You'll work it out. :)

I tell mine that it beats sitting on the couch zombified watching whatever sports game that happens to be on the tv. It usually shuts him up plus he likes me sane.

We've agreed that his keyboard and trumpet can go in, but the drums need to stay in the music room.

David, this is a perfect example. :)
