I work to support a sewing habit that I don't have time for, because I work!
Oh yeah.... It's. Just easier to go alone.... Although my DH never complained about how long my "one thing " took me to find....

If only mine wouldn't go with me! He's the type who scours the store and will pull bolts and bring them to me. Doesn't matter if it's heavyweight home dec or pique ... he goes by color ... so anything is fair game.
I planned on going to the Hancock thread sale last week but felt a cold coming on and went to bed. So I wake up and there's a small bag full of thread. He went and got 4 spools of Sulky in 4 different neutral colors and 6 ~ 1,200 yard spools of Coats extra long staple 30 wt Egyptian cotton (2 each of 3 different neutrals.) All I wanted was ONE spool of 50 wt as a spare .........
So if anyone wants to go fabric shopping and have to wait on a husband to get finished "looking" you can borrow mine!
I go with my husband all the time. He always takes his Kindle and waits in the car. It gives him good reading time. He's a keeper.
I would rather shop alone or with someone else who quilts also. DH has good taste and I value his opinion, it is just short lived. What are you going to use it for, is his often repeated question. Dont' know yet is my repeated reply.
