I'm very pleased to tell you that I have finished SIBOL No. 28 which is the fourth 'Blue and White' Blanket. I hope you like it as much as the others.
I've had great fun making it once again. So many Blue and White Squares came in and I still have three more to do! But this one was made last weekend. I started it Saturday while Mr. Twins went up to Scotland and by the Sunday evening it was assembled and bordered up! So I was very pleased to show him when he got home.
The Squares have just been absolutely amazing and I am very grateful to you all. Please bear with me if you haven't seen your Square yet for this theme. As I say there are others! I'm afraid it looks rather like the others, the reason being I still have lots of white yarn to use up and I thought I must use it before buying anymore. As long as we have a reasonable Blanket at the end that's the main thing.
Thank you to everyone who have sent me 'Blue and White' Squares, without you I couldn't make the Blankets. I appreciate your help very much.
Here's SIBOL 28's 'Slide Show'.
If you go back a couple of posts and read what Charlotte wrote about her own 'Jan Eaton' Blanket. You'll probably have read that I thought of making a 'Jan Eaton' SIBOL Blanket. I was greatly inspired by Charlotte and I want to thank you for your great post.
I thought why not make a 'Jan Eaton' Blanket for the Elderly. Now do you have her book? '200 Crochet Blocks for Blankets, Throws and Afghans?'. If you do........
1. Turn to the front of the book where there is a Block Directory.
2. Choose one Block between the numbers 1 to 25.
3. When you have chosen a Block, email me and let me know which number you are going to make.
sueatpigsty@talktalk.net
4. I will then add it to the list on the SIBOL Side bar (at the top).
5. When the Block is made send it to my home address (on request).
When I have 25 Blocks (Squares) out of the Jan Eaton book. I will make them into a
'Sunshine Blanket' for the Elderly.
When we have made the Blanket we will do another Blanket using the Blocks 25 to 5O.
I thought this might be fun!
I hope you will join in!
