This is Part II of the SAL that Carol is currently running. I was a little late submitting my picture so have just received the chart for Part III today, and I am planning to stitch it this evening at Tuesday Stitching Group.
You must forgive me if I am a little quiet on the blogging front - my Mum had another fall while we were on holiday. One hip replacement later & fingers crossed that the recouperation continues well. There's planning afoot this week for physiotherapy to get her mobile again ~ hopefully the upright kind of mobile.
There should have been a family gathering this coming weekend to mark my Dad's 90th birthday ~ I'm not sure what will happen at the moment as I'm quite certain that Dad would prefer to have Mum by his side to mark this fantastic milestone.
Last weekend was a LM (I may have to re-name him FM - Fiance Man!) family gathering to celebrate his Parents' Golden Wedding Anniversary. A fabulous time was had by all ~ some more than others I have to say. We were able to catch up with people we don't see often enough, particularly the two who travelled from Australia. Lots of people were desperate to see my engagement ring, unfortunately it is still with the designer being re-made to fit! So they had to content themselves with the picture on my phone ~ as I have to, one week down, possibly still 5 to go before I get to wear it.
I haven't had a proper look at the photographs from the weekend yet but I should be able to show you the cakes that LM had made for his Mum & Dad at some point ~ they were brilliant and very well received.
Hope you've all weathered the storm safely.

I too am looking forward to seeing "THE" RING too Kate.
I was so sorry to hear about your mum, bless her, hope she can be there to celebrate with your dad soon although it sounds as if it may be later rather than sooner.
Sounds as if the celebrations continue ,and another celebration in the future too - how long do we have to wait.
hugs.
Your stitching is coming along so nicely. Love that color! I hope you Mom will recover nicely from her fall. It's hard when our parents get older, isn't it. : (
Great stitching on the SAL.
Hope your mum recovers quickly
I hope your Mum's recovery goes well.
Your SAL is looking lovely.
