Green Bay Packer-John Deere Afghan

At our house, green and gold stand for the football team Green Bay Packer-John Deere afghan. The football that is shown in this picture was signed by Jordy Nelson and Brady Papinga. They visited our local school many years ago and they signed this football for my daughter. We have a picture of Jordy sitting on a bench with my daughter too. Very good people and role models!

Of course, when you life in Wisconsin, The Green Bay Packer’s should be the team you cheer for. I know we do. So, this blanket and pillow could also be used for team colors

Farm Machinery Colors

As far as the John Deere side, we also farm and we do have some green and gold equipment. So you see why we just have to have a green and gold pillow and afghan.
