Squares arrive from Australia and New Zealand!

Hello Everyone!

Well it's  a better day here in the UK, the sun has actually brightened everything up now!

I'm so pleased to be popping in to show you some great Squares that I have received today from
Aussie Maria  (Australia) and Alice & Raymond (New Zealand).

Well fancy that you were both flying the same way over to the UK! It's such a pleasure to receive your Squares this morning.  Great too that you have taken part in our Challenges.

Maria thank you for your Squares.  I just love the varigated yarn you have used. It's lovely. The Christmas Squares have come up lovely using it. There is something about red, green and white isn't there? So Christmasy! Also a great Square for our Bonfire Challenge and then a lovely white one too. I am so grateful to you.

Thanks Maria, I hope you enjoyed looking at your Squares!

Next we have Alice and Raymond from New Zealand. Golly our Squares for SIBOL do travel! If you add up all the miles these little beauties do, unbelieveable. No wonder why they  need a bit of a rest!  Your Squares are lovely Alice and Raymond it is really nice of you to make such pretty Squares. I do love the Flower ones, but hey I love them all!



I'm very pleased to be making you your Slide Show Alice and Raymond enjoy! Thanks for the Squares! Gorgeous.

Thank you both for the beautiful Squares.

Well 30th September has arrived. Our deadline dates for the Challenges. We have the 'Jan Eaton' one still open if anyone wants to choose a block.  Hopefully, our Challenges will start again next year. I will do my best now to make up some more blankets ready for November. 

The 'Strawberry and Cream' theme should be next, but I am thinking I will do the Bonfire ones and then Christmas as it's approaching that time of year. Thank You all for your wonderful support on these Challenges. I know from emails I get everyone is enjoying them so....much!

I know you can't wait for the next Challenges to begin.  I know it's hard, but I'm sure there will be plenty of Christmas Crocheting going on now to keep you busy. If you still want to send the odd Square that is fine, but as I say the Challenges apart from the Jan Eaton one have now ended.  If you have Squares in the post don't worry. You know it takes me a while to get through these Challenges my end.

I've absolutely loved making the Sunshine Blankets, The Flower Blankets, The Blue and Whites are NOW FINISHED!!! Yippee.  If there is any odd Blue and Whites that are not in the Blankets this is because there isn't enough to make up another one. So I will use them in the Men's coming up.

My Ta - Dah will be tomorrow!

As I'm just posting this today, I see that Manda's Challenges have given you 'a Challenge' Please take part! Thank you for this! I have to do the Bonfire ones first, so if you want to have a go please don't worry!

Also Isolde, you are a tease!  I'll be looking forward to these Squares too!  Thanks for the great post!

Bye for now......
