This class we had to pick a memory, person, or a story. We needed to pick fabrics that told a story about that person or memory or create a landscape of the memory. I ended up picking my dad for the person. I made this wallhanging for a Christmas present.
Here is his story...He is proud to be an American. He loves sports, all sports: football, baseball, basketball, hockey, and Nascar. His favorite teams are Vikings, Twins, Lobos, Golden Gophers and Dale Jarett. He is from Minnesota and loves to fish and hunt. He was in the Air Force. He sells produce. He loves his grandkids and always has the paper with the sports section close by. He loves to play pool every Friday night. Miller Lite is a big part of his character. I could not find fabric with this logo, so I bought a button down shirt and used the fabric from that. I also could not find Lobo material, so I had to print my own. It is kinda crazy, but so is he, ha ha. Love you DAD!
