Flashback Friday - Father and Daughter Golf Shirts

This picture makes my heart melt, my face smile and my eyes get a little teary.  It is such a cute picture with such wonderful memories


This was July 2000, the twins were 5-1/2 and we belonged to a local golf course.  Paige our oldest loved to golf, as did my husband (what am I saying he still loves to golf).  We would go to the course on Sunday evenings as a family and play at least 6 holes.  Mike cut down putters for all the girls when they were young so everyone had their own club and it was just the right size.  That was the only time they were allowed to hit, so when we reached the green off they would run with the ball and club.  The girls would hit and count the strokes until the ball was in the hole.

The fabric came from Needle Nook Fabric after a weekend trip to Wichita.  We took the whole family on a mini-trip just so I could shop at Anne's store.  I brought home some great goodies, one of them this stripe knit for matching golf shirts.  In addition to fabric shopping, we went to the zoo, the Science museum and Cow Town (historical venue).

For the twins' shirts, I used Kwik Sew Sewing for Toddlers
and for my husband's shirt Kwik Sew 1882
In, fact, I found my review for this pattern on Pattern Review

Grandson note, he spent two nights in the hospital the first of the week with RSV, yesterday afternoon he finally seemed to be getting better.  So not much sewing here, I spent my evenings at the hospital loving on the little guy.

  10. They should be low priced, such as golf balls, tees, coolers, coupons, or stickers. The consolation gifts, however, are not the only gifts or awards given at the golf tournaments. Sometimes these more expensive golf tournament gifts will have to be bought or donated by sponsors. charity golf tournament

  14. Quite possibly the most charming parts of the sport of golf is the capacity players need to toss their own style and energy in with the general mish-mash Visit: https://golfgeeky.com.

  16. First off, let's talk about the basic rules of the game. Stone Age is a worker placement game. Each player starts out with 5 people which can be placed in various places on the board in order to gather food, resources, make tools, construct buildings, advance in the food chain, produce more people or advance the civilization. Workers are placed in yellow "rings" and each place has 1 to 7 rings available for worker placement. https://kingboost.net/

  18. Disc golf is different from traditional golf. First, you use a disc instead of a ball. Second, you don't need any golf clubs. Third, instead of a hole in a green, the target is a wire basket suspended below something like a basketball hoop with hanging chains set a few feet above the ground. Additionally, the holes are typically only 400 to 500 feet long. Admission to these courses is either free or costs only a nominal fee at many public parks. best high end disc golf bags

  20. Bitcoin is more than just a cryptocurrency, or money for the internet, it is a set of programming protocols that can be applied to any information system. Bitcoin has become something of a fad in the west, used by the technologically savvy as a means of displaying wealth in our increasingly virtual world. In contrast, to those in developing nations, Bitcoin provides an opportunity to participate in a global financial system that was previously inaccessible. euro stablecoin
