Back for now

It's been the end of August since I last posted. Of course I've been sewing, but life has also interfered. My son's official separation (29 days and counting) has been traumatic for the entire family---him most of all, but what mother's heart wouldn't also break? So I spent some time with him in his new digs to help make the bachelor pad a little more homey. On the way home the BF fell asleep at the wheel and we had an accident. No one seriously hurt but the car took forever (well, a week) to be repaired and the stress, I guess, threw both the BF and me into a horrible cold/flu/brochitist/nasty thing which has then had me down for 3 weeks. However, today it was 62 degrees, sunny, and a perfect day for tennis so I played and so consider myself completely cured. For sewing, before all this horribleness, I went to the Atlanta Sewing Guild retreat and started this jacket, which I then completed:

and of course I've also been following all my favorite bloggers out there.

So glad that neither one of you was hurt in that accident. Glad to hear you're well and back among sewing friends.

Your jacket is great-looking on you and, of course, even better in person! Glad you're back to blogging. Hope things calm down for you.

I saw this picture in the Stitchers Guild 6PAK discussion and thought the outfit looked fantastic on you. I am glad to hear both you and BF were not hurt.
