Knock me over with a feather

After lunch today DH asked if I would show him how to do latch hook. I have a latch hook project I started three years ago (when pregnant) to put in DD's room and it is still only half-finished. Since it isn't a "baby" design, DH wants to finish it to put in her room. How do I get over the mental anguish of giving up control of my project? Can I do this without micromanaging his efforts? Oh, the torture!

You have a classic problem of cost/benefit. I assume you feel it will be a benefit to you to have your DH engaged in a craft you enjoy, and share your love of this sort of thing. The cost will be letting him take control of "your" project, and potentially ruin it. Being a male, let me offer you the advice to let him do it *his* way. My guess is he will go out of his way to turn it into a lovely finished project, because - how can I say it without it sounding too trite? - he loves you. Trust him *completely*, and you will be *very* glad you did.
