SIBOL 'GIVEAWAY!' SATURDAY UPDATE - SQUARES FROM THE NETHERLANDS.

Hi Everyone!

I'm very happy to be announcing my first 'SIBOL' Giveaway!  On the 28th February we celebrate our First Anniversary. I can't believe a year has flown by already! In this time we have collected so...many Squares and managed to make so.....many Blankets! Unbelievable!  Thank you all so much.  I'm also very pleased to be telling you that we have just reached our 300th Follower too! Fantastic!

Before I tell you about my Giveaway, thanks to everyone that has been mailing me about the 'Royal Wedding' Challenge.  I really appreciate your kind words and enthusiasm for this Challenge! In particular an email I received this afternoon from a Lady in the UK telling me how the wedding is reminding her of Princess Diana, and how terribly sad it is that she won't see her son's wedding. Making a Square for the 'Royal Wedding' Blanket,  she feels she is making this for Princess Diana  as well as for SIBOL.   She was indeed a very special person.

I hope I haven't stepped over the mark telling you what she said, but I thought this was really nice. It's given her such a lot of enjoyment taking part in the Royal Wedding Blanket.  I know from comments you are all leaving you think the Blanket is a good idea, so I'm really pleased thank you.

So have a think about your Square, I'm sure we can come up with some brilliant ideas!

'THE 'GIVEAWAY'

I will be using the 'Random Generator' to select two winners.
I have a  quantity of yarn and  two  'surprise tiny weeny' gifts  to share between  two lucky people.

Then in the 'SIBOL' Giveaway  Feb 2011. -  Topic Post.
Just say hi to me and 'please enter me in your giveaway!'
Your Name will be at the side, so I will know who you are!

That's all you have to do. Simple as that.
The Giveaway will be closed Midnight 27th February.

We will then let the 'Random Generator' find two lucky people.
On the 28th February our '1st Year Anniversary' the two lucky winners will be announced on the SIBOL web-site.

I have some really beautiful Squares arrive this morning.  I think Karin and Laura were flying over from the Netherlands together because their packages arrived together! Did you make friends on the way? :)

Karin (Netherlands) has sent me her two tone Green Squares. These Squares are so lovely. Nice shades of Green Karin and the patterns are lovely.  Thanks so much.
