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

RAMBO

Wonderful! So nice to be appreciated.

I love this quilt and think nearly all males would. You did a great job! Isn't it the best feeling when you know they really do love what you made them? Nothing is better.

Definitely nothing better.... And it's funny, I can get paid pretty good for faux finishing a room, paint a mural or canvas and he's never acted as excited about that as if I whip out a little pillow case lmao

Very cool quilt (love the Snoopy) - I think he's obviously a very tender-hearted fella. Thanks for sharing.

How wonderful to be married to a man that's not afraid to express his feelings. I made a quilt for my husband several years ago and he said, "Thanks, that's nice." When I said, "Don't you like it?" He said, "Yeah, it's all right."
He has, however, slept under every night since so I think he likes it more than he'll admit to.
You make sure you treasure that sentimental honey you have, he sounds like he's worth it.

Great looking quilt! I love the Snoopy label. Sometimes simple is best. You knew him well enough to give him the perfect quilt.

That is so sweet! You have some good memories in the making:) Nice quilt:) H*A*P*P*Y*N*E*W*Y*E*A*R!!

You're so blessed!!!! And the quilt is great too!!

Sometimes we just gotta love our hubbies. I made a quilt for mine in June for his B-day and he uses it everynight while sitting on the couch watching tv. BTW I can see why yours loves it some much, it's a great quilt.
