Some days you spend

 hours searching for the fabric you want.  If it is a licensed fabric it is much harder to find.  

Someone I know loves the Green Bay Packers.  He sent me a photo of his very tiny son and him watching a game.  That was all I needed.

I finally found what I wanted at Sunshine and Peony, an online shop in Caledon, Ontario. Bonus!!! It was on sale.  That was for Dad but what about Douglas.  I found another football fabric at The Quilt Store here in the village.  They have two stores and you can do online shopping.

I already had the pantograph in the machine so it was just a matter of cutting, loading, stitching out and then back to the cutting table.  Within minutes they were both cut and then I put this one together.


I already had the insert made but that is Sunday work, so I worked on number 2 pillow which is slightly smaller but it still has a Green Bay Packer on the fabric.  I checked with Dad to make sure.
Okay here it is!
I have this very strong love for green and gold == they were my high school colours!!  Maybe that's why my Dad cheered for this team.  Okay, it was Vince Lombardi!!
This is for Douglas.

and finally...........they are done!!
This one is 16" x 16" more or less
This one is 18" x 18"
and here you go......all ready for the Super Bowl
No this team won't be there.  No, I won't be watching.  No I won't be going.  I could never afford it.

I have a movie recorded for that night because it will be nothing but football.
The movie???? 
The Grizzlies
You can find it on APTN once in awhile and I recorded it so I can watch it again.
It's a really good movie and I highly recommend.
