Sew little time...

Some of you may have noticed that it's been a while since I last posted something I made. This is mainly due to time constraint (either my workload has increased or I'm getting slower at getting it done), and a number of other mundane things that keep me away from the sewing machine. Unfortunately, this week is booked up with doctor's appointments plus a visit to the dentist and I just found out that my mother's longstanding illness has taken a turn for the worse. My mom lives about 400 miles from where I live, and it looks like we'll be driving over there end of the week. In the meantime my FIL generously offered to take care of Sammy, while we're gone. I've re-scheduled everything and hubby has taken time off work specially, because somehow I don't think I can cope with my mom's situation alone. My mother also has a little kitty. We've agreed it's best if we bring her back with us, although it's going to break my mom's heart. But atleast she knows that we will provide a good home for her. Well, with all of this going on I still managed to squeeze in some sewing, if only an eyeglass/ sunglass case. I made it wide, so it even fits Jackie O-type sunglasses. It is thickly padded and closes with a flap. take care everybody...

    Very sorry to hear about your mom. It's good that you all aren't much farther away though. At least it's manageable. I'm sure she's comforted to know she's in such good care:)
