Ta - Dah! Introducing SIBOL No. 24 (Flower Theme 9).

Hi Everyone!

I'm so happy to day I have a Ta - Dah! for you. I have to introduce SIBOL No. 24 (Flower Theme 9) would you believe! I've had the most beautiful Squares from you all and it's been such a great pleasure working with them all. I can't thank you enough!

I have tried to make all the Blankets look different and I hope you have enjoyed looking at them as much as I have enjoyed making them.

It's been rather difficult taking photos out in the Garden we've had lots of Showers today!

Thank you everyone for your beautiful SIBOL Squares! Lets' play our SIBOL Board Game! (Please add note if you see your Square!)

I hope you enjoyed looking at the last Flower Blanket!
Thanks again to everyone who have contributed Flower
Squares! I've so enjoyed making these Blankets......x

STOP PRESS EVERYONE!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR TEAM BLOGGER 'ISOLDE!'
She has very successfully got her Babette Squares
into 'Inside Crochet' this month Page 79,
Well done Isolde, I'm so pleased for you!!

Sue these are just beautiful and will bring many smiles when received in November. I have my little one here on my lap, admiring all these rugs and picking out his favourites. I explained to him who they were for and he become rather concerned that there are people out there without a 'knitting hook' rug. oh the sweet innocence of little ones.
Thank you again for your dedication to this work and the beautiful way you showcase and finish off each rug. they are stunning.

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!
