My father in law is getting there in his recovery. He was given a clean bill of health by his general practioner earlier this week. He is going to PT a couple of times per week to regain muscle strength and balance.
Our road is under reconstruction...makes "getting there" a challenge some days (which way do I turn out of the driveway to get off the road???).
And Blackstone Fantasy Garden (BFG) is getting there...got two more sections of the blackwork completed and only have 8 small and one larger (the final corner which I've started) to complete...
I'm thinking I may actually finish this by the end of next week (and depending on when I get to Vermont this weekend for work and how many registrations I have to enter for work before my co-workers get there, maybe this weekend but I doubt that one!!)...
I love this pattern and can't wait to have it finished, frame it (myself because I have too much Scottish in my background to pay some one else to do it!! LOL I don't mean to offend any of my Scottish friends with this one!! ) and get it hanging on my wall...
Have a great weekend all and hopefully my next post will be with a finish (or maybe two if I get the alpha blocks done too!!)

Jackie beautiful work. I have always so admired this piece. I'm glad things are getting there, and you FIL is on the up and up.
Wow- almost done - it looks great, too! Glad your FIL is doing better.
I would love to learn to do blackwork. It looks lovely. Happy to hear your FIL is getting better. It's alaways difficult when a loved one is in need of healing.
Jackie, it's gorgeous! Great job.
Hugs,
Beth
