A Thank you from St. Bernards Residential Care home.

Good Morning Everyone!

If you remember a few weeks ago I hand-delivered some of our 'Sunshine Blankets' to St. Bernards Residential Care Home.

The Staff at St. Bernards Residential Care Home welcome our 'Sunshine Blankets'.

Well in the post yesterday I received a beautiful Thank You card from the Staff and Residents.

A Thank You Card I received yesterday from St.Bernards Residential Care Home thanking us for our 'Sunshine Blankets'.

I wanted to share it with you.

The inside of the Thank You Card from St. Bernards.

Inside there was also a sheet of paper and the Residents who had received our 'Sunshine Blankets' had signed their names thanking us. I thought this was so nice of them. I'm not going to post it on here, because of protecting their privacy but I just wanted you to know that our 'Sunshine Blankets' were received with many thanks and they were really appreciated.

Thanks to everyone who continues to help me with my project and thank you 'St. Bernards' this Thank You card was very much appreciated.

Have a good weekend everyone!

Hello,

Thank you very much for your ideas to post comments. Residential Care Homes are a great option for many families looking for that more personal touch of care. There are many great assisted living homes in Dallas & Fort Worth...

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!
