Beautiful, beautiful Squares from the UK!

Hi Everyone!

Thank you for your comments on previous posts. I am popping back this evening to show you some Squares which arrived at my home. They are from Sally in the UK.

When I first of all started this project back in January 2010, I asked Ladies if they would like to send me perhaps 'one' Square. You know I would have been to delighted to receive one! But yesterday I received
the Big '60!'. I know 60 would you believe!

I am absolutely delighted to be showing you these Squares. Lets's start with a few Flower Squares. I went out into the garden and put Sally's Squares amongst my hanging baskets. Let's have a look at them.

Sally (UK) Your Squares arrived today! Thank You!........>

'60' Beautiful Squares I am most grateful to you!.........>

Now these are just some of the Flower Squares. I think they are gorgeous and I'm sure you will agree!

Now because there were such a lot of Squares I had to find a place to display them all. I know let's go for the steps leading down to my garden.

I am most grateful to you Sally. Thank You!

Gorgeous aren't they? Sally that is not the end of the photos. I have made you a Slide Show with some more I have taken this afternoon for you.

Sit back now with a cup of tea and enjoy! Thank you so much I really appreciate them!

Created with flickr slideshow from softsea.

Have a good weekend everyone!
Thanks for visiting 'SIBOL' today!

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!
