Welcome to the final day of
For the Boys Blog Hop
If you're keenly observant, you'll notice the date above
shows the hop was over two days ago.
Am I late to the party?
Oh Goodness...No I am Not!
I'm right on time and exactly where I'm supposed to be.
There were so many BOYSterous Bloggers,
our dear Madame Samm
and head cheerleader, that
had to add on a couple extra days!
Lucky You!
Thank you ladies for another fun time!
No doubt you've been following along...
Hasn't everyone done a wonderful job?
I'm excited that today is MY day.
So here goes....
What I first planned to do....
well.....didn't get done.
Don't tell me that surprises you now!
If you've been here before...you know I've got some
"attention span" issues...
The Spouse and I were contacted by the local USO office...
asking if by chance we had two quilts for twin boys...
I started with some simple rail blocks...
But we don't really need these quilts until
closer to Christmas....
so on the back burner they went when....
we got a nifty new hexie ruler in the shop from
Creative Grid
so.....
I decided to treat MY BOY TOY this time around!
First I made him a mug rug...
Can you say score?!?!
My friend Margaret Travis of Eazy Peazy Quilts
designed this Muggy Ruggy for "Cut Loose Press" patterns.
How could I not make one for my guy?
next....
I've promised dear Bob that I would make him some shirts....
He's been waiting a good 15 years....
I found a pattern...almost two years ago
(I have to plan these things...I can not be rushed..lol)
and I thought...
it's Now or Never!
Bob sports Hawaiian shirts - they are his uniform of the day.
This authentic Hawaiian pattern by
Victoria Jones Collections
is just perfect!
I chose some cute Wilmington Prints Christmas fabric because....
well let's be real for a minute...
I knew I would HAVE to FINISH this project for the hop!
If I had made a non-seasonal themed shirt first for practice...
what were the Odds that I would
Really
make another shirt in time for the holidays?
(if you guessed pretty slim odds...then you really DO know me)
Ta-Da!!!
Isn't he a cutie???
Take a closer look now...
the picture qual is not great....
but...
...can YOU find the Pocket?
(am I good or what...and oh so humble too)
Here's that Boy Toy Spouse of mine...
getting into the Holiday Spirit...
Wow...his Jag Santa hat matches Perfectly!!!
We have a holiday party next week at the
Everbank Field with our Jaguars Booster Club...
He WILL wear the shirt!
Ho! Ho! Ho!
But then....
before the shirt was finished...
guess what arrived at the shop on Tuesday?
(as in 3 days ago)
Lookie look look!
from Camelot Fabrics!
(Talk about Perfect timing! They are the sponsor for this blog hop you know...
wonder if this earns me some brownie points? lol)
ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN
Would I?
Could I?
Did I Dare?
Do you really have to ask?
Are you ready?
I would....I could...and I did!
Lounging pants for the Spouse.
(thank goodness he wore his un-holey socks...haha)
And now for the full Boy Toy Monty....
(not for the faint of heart - *giggles*)
Don't worry...he's rated PG
(Pretty Great *wink*)
LOL...made ya look, right?
Don't be misled....
Boy Toy Bob does have pretty good fashion sense
and won't be wearing the two together...
out in public...
at least I hope not...
Thanks for stopping by and please visit
