We wen...My husband is my best friend and soulmate. We went to high school together, and hung around in college. We then went separate ways. After twenty years, we both moved back to our home town, and ran into each other.<br />That was 10 years ago. We went out on a date, and have<br />been together ever since. We married 9 years ago. He<br />is a huge St. Louis Cardinals fan. Last year, I started<br />a quilt for him. In the center square, is an applique<br />of the Cardinals logo of the "Birds on the Bat"; on<br />the surrounding squares, I am embroidering team stats~~<br />years they have won the world series, players names, etc. Hopefully I will get it completed someday soon!<br />He completely supports my quilting/fabric habit. Once<br />he accompanied me to a quilt store, and decided he would<br />go in. He saw a rotating cutting board that I had been<br />telling him about, when he saw it, he commented, "Look<br />at this it's like a little football field; green with<br />yellow markings." You could hear all of the other ladies in the store giggling. He then immediatey said<br />"I think I am going to wait in the car, you just take <br />your time, and get whatever you want." I think that he<br />is pretty amazing.<br /><br />I like your blog! congrats on getting more followers!Rhonda D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09172382274623843287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875712245005716169.post-70935425871411333882012-02-15T07:07:25.461-06:002012-02-15T07:07:25.461-06:00My hubby is my eyes for quilts.

They have always come out beautiful. <br />I am in the process of making him another DUDDER BLANKIE. I always consider them a QOV as he is a disabled veteran.<br />Love the quilt you have pictured.......

This morning he surprised me with the sweetest valentine ever (both of us were crying). Then he had a nice dinner fixed for me when I got home late tonight.<br /><br />I haven't made any quilty treats just for him.

He is my biggest supporter, my shoulder to cry on, my Lighthouse in the storm and the love of my life. Sometimes the waiting is worth it!! <br />Congrats on reaching your first goal on your blog!! I'm sure that you are going to reach higher now :-)Carol Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04210549393258172553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875712245005716169.post-46215783663484204662012-02-14T18:28:13.935-06:002012-02-14T18:28:13.935-06:00My dear sweet husband totally supports my love of ...My dear sweet husband totally supports my love of quilting and gives me the freedom to do what I want when it comes to quilting. He is the first person to love me for who I truly am as a person. Last year I was still married to but separated from a man I had been married to for 22 years that had abused me both sexually and emotionally and made me feel so low about myself it has taken some time for me to come out of my shell again. I sometimes wait to be told I can do something when I don't have to now because I have the freedom of his love to do what makes me happy. My true love has worked with the worst of the worst in the Texas Prison System so he can relate to what my ex put me through all those years. I can honestly say now that I only stayed for the sake of the kids which in the end hurt them even more so now is me and my new husbands time. We just went to the JP and got married and had a small reception at my Mother-in-Laws house. He is truly the love of my life and treats me like the Queen in his world so what more could I ask for really. For the first time in 21 years I got a Valentine's gift from my husband and it made me feel so special. Love, true friendship and happiness are the best things in this world. Quilting comes in right behind the most wonderful man in my life I have to admit. My husband looks through some of my patterns and says this would look great in this color or that color you could do that and he is serious. Well I have bragged enough about my wonderful man but if you want to know more just contact me and I can tell you lots more.dandmward2noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875712245005716169.post-14944400130930597212012-02-14T18:08:14.585-06:002012-02-14T18:08:14.585-06:00My husband is my hero.

Then the other kept giving me little kisses during the day. He was home sick :-).<br />I never got the flowers cause they all looked awful, so I got chocolates instead. Yum, Yum.<br />Congrats on your blog, I was so excited when I got to 20 last week.<br />Please check out my giveaway for 20 as well.<br />Hugs<br />raelenesramblings.blogspot.comRandR Serenityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02417042225886092257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875712245005716169.post-91322501316971374762012-02-14T15:09:00.143-06:002012-02-14T15:09:00.143-06:00My most recent quilt project was a rag quilt I mad...My most recent quilt project was a rag quilt I made for my son's graduation from college. I made it in turquoise flannel fabrics as his birthday is in December and that is his alternate birthstone and favorite color. I also embroidered the quilt label with the name of his college, graduation date and "made with love, Mom" signature. He loves it!DottieDAJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13481693996065303700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875712245005716169.post-16739340754605798452012-02-14T12:40:06.512-06:002012-02-14T12:40:06.512-06:00My DH is a wonderful person.

He works 50+ hours a week at a job he hates, and then comes home and cares for all my fiber animals, so that I can be 1500 miles away and taking care of my mom. For my birthday last year, when I was out of town, he went to a lqs that was closing an dbought &80.00 worth of fq bundles at .99 a bundle. <br /><br />I haven't made him a quilt yet because he always 'runs hot'. I have sewn him clothes, (shirts and pj's mostly), but have embroidered his name on his work shirts.<br /><br />Donna (fuzzyacres1@msn.com)rabbitspinnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13453068210379521390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875712245005716169.post-7846962631356964032012-02-14T12:01:49.732-06:002012-02-14T12:01:49.732-06:00My Husband is my rock.

He is always there to encourage me, especially when I get down on myself, because something I am "trying" to quilt is not working out. <br /><br />I recently made him a T-shirt quilt (my very first quilt) and when I was just not sure about it the way it looked, he was there to push me on. All and all the quilt turned out wonderful and my Husband loves it.<br /><br />Jennifer Bachman (sweetness29157@yahoo.com)Mongoosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14837071602469032660noreply@blogger.com
