Christmas in July Package

I was SO excited to celebrate Christmas in July for the first time. I would talk to Cody about it all the time before he left. I was ecstatic. A week after Cody left I already new what I was going to do for his present. My grandma is an incredible seamstress. She makes the most beautiful dolls and quilts. Seriously they're amazing. I decided I was going to make Cody a quilt.
So I went to Joann's with my mom and grandma to pick out some "manly but cute" fabric. Cody's favorite color is blue, well Bingham blue or BYU blue to be specific ;)
I thought orange and gray would look cute too. Step one, done.
Next was making the actual quilt. This was so much fun! Oh my gosh sewing is my new fav thing. Maybe. Haha.
I bought this special material that you can print a picture on and then iron it right on to the quilt it's really cool.
This breezed by. Before I knew it I was  putting it in the box with his favorite drink, Baja Blast.
Well I had to cuddle with it for one night before sending it off so that added another day. On July 24th it was  at the UPS store for same day delivery.
This was such a fun project and Cody sleeps with it every night to this day. Here are a few pictures of the final project.

So there ya go! Christmas in July present complete.

I was totally surprised to get a package in the mail on July 25th. It was from Cody! I seriously was so excited to open it! He has remembered about Christmas in July. He is seriously the cutest you guys have no idea. This meant the world to me! He gave me a t-shirt that's about 4 sizes too big from the MTC with a map of Mexico on it. It's now my favorite item of clothing. I was so excited and impressed that he remembered. 

Doesn't he have perfect hand writing?! He needs his own font on Microsoft word.
