Squares from USA, Spain, Finland! Busy Saturday.......

Hello Everyone! Happy Saturday to you all!

I am so pleased to tell you all that Lunas' Squares arrived today from USA. Luna is one of our 'team bloggers' and she has very kindly contributed to SIBOL on a number of occasions. She has made the most beautiful Flower Squares. Please don't worry about being late Luna, because I shall fit them in! Also 'Blue and White' Squares. Really have a look for yourselves, because her Squares are just lovely! I am so grateful, thank you Luna. I just loved the little bundles of Squares tied up, so pretty!

Little Bundles of Squares arrive from shiloandspieky (USA). Thank you so...much!

Luna - I am showcasing your beautiful Squares in your very own Slide Show! Enjoy everyone!

Created with flickr slideshow from softsea. I have also had some Squares in from Sabiha in Finland. What a gorgeous set of Squares Sabiha! Thank you so much! In particular Sabiha surprised me and made me a Square with my car on. 'Sues' Clio! Isn't that just so cute! You will see it on the Slide Show you are about to see. Her Squares are going to be brilliant for the Mens' Blankets such appropriate colours, I am truly grateful!

Sabiha - Your very own Slide Show, enjoy!

I have had a busy Saturday.......More Squares arrived today this time from Merchy. Now Merchy who lives in Spain has sent me some Squares which will be great for a few of our themes. 'Strawberry and Cream' as you will see, also the Christmas Theme which is 'Red, Green, White' Squares and also some for the 'Mens Blankets!. I am so grateful to you and thank you for the Crocheted Butterfly, so cute! Merchys' Mother helps her make Squares and I'm really pleased you are both enjoying SIBOL!.

Sit back and enjoy your Slide Show too Merchy!

Welcome to 'SIBOL'

Hi I'm Sue,

Married with Twin Daughters.

I live in the UK.

With the help of my on-line friends we

are making and donating Sunshine Blankets

to Elderly Residents in Care/Nursing Homes.

Would you like to help us?

We no longer accept Squares but we do accept

your Crocheted and Knitted Blankets. We also

accept Knitted and Crocheted Shawls.

My address is only available by email.

Sue on sueatpigsty@virginmedia.com

All details are on

www.sibolchallenges.blogspot.com

The project was started in Memory of my

Grandmother.

Thank you!

Important Notices

Please Note.

Donations of Sunshine Blankets/Shawls/Butterflies can be accepted between these dates.

1st March to 30th November 2016. Thank you.

I am often asked if there are 'collection points' around the country. Some Ladies find the cost of postage too expensive. There is a way round this. Why not make your Sunshine Blanket and donate it to your 'local' Care Home? If you want to contact me for a a pdf 'label' I will willingly send it to you. You can do this on behalf of our Group 'SIBOL' if that would help you. On the understanding that you would send me a photo of your blanket and the name of the Home where you have donated it to. I can then count this in to our totals.

Lists of Care Homes are available by contacting me.

This would be a great way of getting Sunshine Blankets to the Elderly in other parts of the country and not just 'Birmingham'.

If I can help you please contact me

I'm Sue on sueatpigsty@virginmedia.com

Thank you.

The Lost Stash by Sally 'Chunky Hooker'.

Whilst rummaging in the scrap cupboard, I heard a plaintive cry " She never looks in our little bag, Can you tell me why? " A voice replied, "We're old and tatty, A little bit worn out, Our colours dull, our fibres matted, Now don't give me that pout!" "But I want to be a 'Sibolette', I really, really do! To be part of a Sibol, Made by the lovely Sue. It's my destiny, my dream, my fate!" The voice was getting higher, "I may be old but it's never too late, I'm not ready to retire". "Oh gosh", I thought, That sounds like me, Slightly worn, with a dodgy knee. So I'm off to college, A Diploma to gain And the voices of the Lost Stash? "Sibolettes" they became!
