    My DBIL retired from the Navy a few years ago and now quilts all the time (unless he is golfing). He makes fabulous quilts. His OBW make me green with envy. Your husband may have a new favorite hobby!

    oh wouldn't that just be the funnest thing! Having my husband quilting too. We could go crazy together. (He'd have to have his own sewing room, tho. lol...) How excited you both must be - just look at his shining face...

    That's fantastic! :thumbup: And with all those machines, you don't have to share, you both can be stitching away at the same time. :lol: :lol: :lol:

    Woohooo big guy!!!! Great job and welcome to the world of quilting. My guy is a wood worker and is now buying vintage machines and fixing them for me. I asked him if he is interested in quilting. He said maybe. Quilting is not just for women. Have fun together!

    I think it's wonderful that he's so interested in what you're doing that he wants to be a part of it :) You're a lucky girl!!

    He did a great job on the quilt top and I'm looking forward to seeing it finished :)
