I had to show the quilt/pillow that I made for DH for Christmas..
The story> He only asked for a camo quilt..No pattern, nothing lol..So I made it reversible..The front is cotton the back is flannel..Since I couldn't make it special with a design of some kind..I know that him and his brother have forever loved and collected snoopy ( his brother passed away this year) So I appliqued snoopy in the label...I also chose a high quality batting (quilters dream puff = 1.5 times warmer than down and super soft- he camps in cool weather alot/playing rambo lol)
Wow, I did not expect his reaction christmas morning...He actually teared up and hugged me off my feet ( did i mention for a biker looking dude, he's extremely sentimental lol)
Every morning since, he carefully folds up that quilt and says.."I looove my quilt..Best present I got baby..And it's big enough to fold up in and so warm its like snapping an airtight coffin closed ha"...If no one ever appreciates a quilt I make from now on, I'll be ok with that (smile)...:: pause ::.... ok, no I won't but, his reaction sure will help lol
