Daddio on the Patio

8/28/2012

0 Comments

 
With Dad's birthday in July, (the 21st to be exact), we usually end up with some kind of outdoor dining extravaganza to celebrate.

Being the official BBQ- and grill-master of the family, Dad - sometimes referred to as Daddio or Daddy-o - ends up on the back deck or patio an awful lot for summertime dinners.  Hence, Daddio on the Patio!

Two years ago, I commemorated his skills with a very masculine grillin' apron - that I of course can't find a photo of, for the life of me... Think: Black apron with "Daddio on the Patio" stamped on the front of it in fire-esque letters.  

ANYWAY!  This year I decided to continue the tradition with some custom-made towels that he can hang out by the grill!

I picked up some black kitchen towels, a little flame fabric, random patchwork letters, etc. added in some fabric I already had, a little Heat 'n' Bond, and my affinity for applique and voila:

I wasn't really sure what to expect, so I just dove right in and they turned out great!  

Rob and I went over to the house and we had a big birthday dinner with Mom, Dad, and a bunch of my parents' friends.  Delicious, per usual!  :)
