The Finished Project.
My Dad's birthday party was this past Sunday.
It was a lot of fun,
my brother was in town for his spring break, crazy facial hair and all,
my mom, my sister, both of my grandmas, boyfriend,
my brother's girlfriend and her family.
Her birthday was 3 days after my dad's so it was a joint party.
My dad smoked ribs and we had our own little BBQ.
From the time Matt and I went over there
Sunday morning before church,
all my dad could ask was "Where is my quilt?!"
We then told him the sewing machine broke
and he won't get it till next week.
I don't think he believed our great story on how the bobbin broke. : )
We did make him wait all day for it though
and when we finally gave it to him, he loved it.
Although my mom ended up stealing it from him.
But here it is: The Finished Project

Quilter
My dad's birthday is tomorrow or if you want to be more specific, here in about 30 mins.
He has been wanting a t-shirt quilt since forever.
My brother got one in May for a graduation present from a family friend with all of his wrestling shirts, its super warm/comfy/huge/awesome. He didn't take it to college so whenever I stay the night at my parents, I use it. Well his is 5 rows with 5 t-shirts in each row, pretty big, and my dad's however will be 6 rows with 5 t-shirts.
Did I mention it is front and back also?! Well it is. 60 t-shirts my dad sacrificed for this quilt or his "blankie" but I wouldn't exactly say sacrificed, he handed them over no problem at all.
Anyways I completed the first side Thursday and if I had stayed in town this weekend I probably would of finished it in time for his birthday but his party isn't until my brother is here for his spring break. So no rush for me. Thank goodness.
As for showing you the picture that Matt and I tried super hard to get a good view of it my laptop is experiencing some technical difficulties and won't upload. Really the only reason why I was blogging about it.
Alright this post has taken up 30 minutes and it is officially my dad's birthday.
Hopefully I get the hang of this.
