I am sorry your father didn't like it, and I am even more sorry that he hurt your feelings that way.
Sometimes we get reactions from people that we don't understand. And quite possibly some reactions they can't understand either.
If your dad isn't one to hurt someone's feelings lightly, then perhaps he doesn't understand why he reacted that way either. Sometimes things in our past come back out at a whim that have lain dormant for a long time. I do hope you can forgive your father and continue to love him and think of him as special, as you obviously do.
I think your gift was lovely. You put a part of yourself into it. It shows.
