    Aww, I remember you posting about this a while back. I love how you got snoopy in there and I'm so happy for you about his reaction. You know, my husband is entirely NON interested in my quilting ventures. The other day he watched me put together a sleep sac for our youngest and when it was done in a couple of hours and looked pretty darn close to the store bought one I used as a template, my husband said to me "Wow, you're getting pretty good at this sewing stuff". It certainly wasn't an overwhelmed teary reaction, but that off hand compliment meant so much!

    You listened to him and did just the right thing...simple, manly and quietly sentimental. He sounds like a keeper, for sure.

    What a sweet, sweet story! Thank you for sharing it. I'm so glad he appreciates your work. -- I like the quilt too, especially the Snoopy label. That is a great touch.

    Love the quilt and it is obviously perfect for your DH. You did well and his reaction and continued comments should make you feel as special as you are for knowing him so well.
