What do men know! Hang them up or put them over chairs. You do excellent work.

It is the same with my flower beds my husband says he doesn't like flower but he will be the first one telling someone else how nice this flower is.

I won't go so far as to say your hubs is a lunatic or advise you to bring them out of the closet, so to speak. I would use harsher language than that. But you have to live with him, we fellow quilters don't, thank goodness. I am sure he has other, admirable qualities that we are just unaware of They are lovely quilts and I particularly like the tumblers with the applique, very nice.

Mine is a little that way, thinks the two I have on the wall are enough, so I just keep adding little pieces on end tables, coffee table, change the ones on the wall, put a couple in other rooms, etc. So far he's still here and if he's complaining, only he is listening. Good luck, yours are beautiful and need to be seen! :thumbup:

I would tell my husband "this is my house also" and put one out on a couch or wall. My DH wouldn't say anything anyway
but just in case he would I"m prepared. Ha!

Take down all your pictures and hang them as art. Much to nice to keep hidden. Your DH should be proud of you. Tell him we said so!

Totally agree, they are art and need to be displayed!!!
