I ran across my small vintage sheet stash and I was inspired to
make the Fig Tree Sherbet and Cream Sew Along
project that was going on a
couple of months ago.
I am still going to use an assortment of solids to make the wedges...
maybe some vintage greens, blues, orange/yellows and of course some pink!
I was making the four patches
Friday morning (early)
when my day took a sudden change.
My poor husband woke up realizing that he had had a stroke.
Life can sure get crazy quickly.
***
I had told him recently
that it would have been amazing to be in Rio to see the Olympics
and Christ the Redeemer statue..
but
as it turned out... we saw a lot of this statue outside the hospital
and watched the Olympics on a I phone in the ER.
We also cried...
and we
laughed...
what else can you do because you realize...
it could
be
worse.
And the bottom line is... the husband gets the gold!
He came home yesterday... only slightly worse for the wear.
Grace, prayers and angels surrounded him and he
is recovering very well.
*** his speech came back and he only has slight weakness on his right side***
An amazing recovery and sight to behold.
On a much happier note..
last week started off with my
oldest son getting married.
A small simple and sweet courthouse ceremony.
Which was just fine after two of his
other brothers had weddings already within the last 4 months!
Here is the sweet couple!
Teague and Blakeley

I think
I might even make it back into the sewing room this week!
18 friends stopped by to chat:
I am so glad your husband is doing well...what a weekend!
Take care of yourself and your husband!
Hugs to you! I'm glad to read that your husband is doing better.
Wonderful news that your husband is having a good recovery. Congratulations to all the happy couples
Thank God your husband is doing well. My DH had a stroke a couple of years ago, and had no lasting problems. Very fortunate indeed. You two may need a little vacation after all that's going on in your life!
Glad to hear that your hubby is better! Congrats to your son and his bride:-)
Prayers to you and your husband. Glad he is home, and wishing him a wonderful recovery.
God bless. A positive attitude is so important. I'm so happy that your husbands recovery is coming along. Take care
