Happy Birthday and great gifts. My husband isn't handy like that. I made myself a light box. LOL

BizzieLizzie 02-03-2013 09:37 PM

Oh wow! Your DH is a definite keeper. What great work and such lovely presents for your birthday. Happy Birthday!

beautiful quilting area...and so neat..light boxes are great..so much better than standing at the window..and having to remove scotch tape from the window. THanks for sharing with us!

I use my lightbox to position my applique pieces on my background fabric. I only have a small one so have to use it in quarters on my big blocks! You have a keeper....but if he gets too much for you, send him my way ;)

I love the rainbow of colours on your thread rack. Sounds like you have a pretty awesome DH!

ccthomas 02-04-2013 06:23 AM

Great gift and love the colors.

Krystyna 02-04-2013 06:33 AM

Love it! Can I please borrow your husband?

Considering the fact that DH`s profession is not even close to any craftmanship he did a very good job! And suffers from blisters on both hands.......:-)
He also made breakfast for me and since he was in my sewing room to put the rack on the wall he updated my Computer - it is really fast again!
A very happy Birthday for me lol

Very nice!

Belated happy birthday to you! What nice gifts you got from hubby. I think he is such a nice guy to make you these lovely gifts. Enjoy!

Belated Happy Birthday greetings to you, Granny59!
WOW ... what a wonderful job MrG59 did ... and I believe he made your quilting table extension too, didn't he?

Always having problems buying the thread I "want" and having to go with another option, I'm totally drooling at your rainbow wall. Me-thinks I know where it came from! :D The other day when I was buying some, I was kidding them that I was going to start buying my thread first ........ before I chose fabrics to make a quilt!! :)

Grandma Peg 02-04-2013 11:24 AM

Happy birthday. Nice gift your husband made you.

wolph33 02-04-2013 11:24 AM

that is a great thread rack.nice light box too.you have a great space to work in

deanneellen 02-04-2013 12:10 PM

This birthday wish is late but I hope you had a wonderful day. Your thread rack and light box are just beautiful. I noted with interest that you are in Switzerland. My son, DDIL, and only grandchild are in Zurich and I have been to visit them several times. I love it because it is very similar in appearance to Oregon where I live. And the chocolate is to die for!

matraina 02-04-2013 12:25 PM

I think your husband is a keeper!

Grama Lehr 02-04-2013 12:26 PM
