    Love it! How wonderful. My hubby helps with cutting too. I won't tell. His secret is safe here.

    Yes you are lucky. My husband could care less about my work! Can we see the quilts?

    I'm one lucky gal!! He was a little nervous at first, but quickly got the hang of it. I can now get started on the next one.

    He's one good "Elf in Training."

    P.S. He made me SWEAR I wouldn't post the pic on Facebook... But he never said anything about the forums . He he he
    Jess, do you think when he's finished he'd want to help me with 4 'rag quilts' in time for Christmas??? Hmmm, maybe, just maybe, if I ask really nice, my hubs would do clipping for me?!?!?! "B"
    NC sayin's from my mama n' daddy, a reminder, lest I forget:

    ~I’m gonna tan your hide. (You’re about to get a whoopin’.)
    ~set yourself down a spell ~~every day of the week n' twice on Sundays
    ~knock you clean into next week n' then some ~~deader than a door nail
    ~can't get blood from a turnip ~~your neck o'the woods
    ~You're just playing possum (pretendin' to be asleep when you didn't want to get up n' go to school)

    That's great! You can tell by his face he's really making an effort to do a good job! I just picked up those Fiskars rag cut scissors. I hope they make it easier! Otherwise, you'll be seeing my husband on here too!

    Jess, good job involving him. My DH helps sandwich the quilts. He has now started checking the paper s for sales soon fabric. Haha isn't that a hoot?

    Yup you've got a keeper.

    I'll be sure to get them posted once they're ready to wash. The one he is snipping now is the only one I've done so far. The second one got cut last night and will hopefully be started sewing tonight

    That is so funny! Showed the pic to my DH and we had a good morning laugh! Thankyou!! In your hubbies defense: my husband would help with anything I ask OR at least try! Both yours and mine are keepers for sure!
