Thank you Adam! UPDATE Squares (UK).

Good Morning Everyone!

Happy Saturday to you all! A lovely day here in the UK.

I'm nearly ready to show you my latest 'Sunshine Blanket' but I thought I would just like to do a post for my friend Adam over in the States. Our Slide Shows on SIBOL are a very important part of my work. Not only do I show you the Blankets that we manage to finish but also to showcase your beautiful Squares!

Over the last few weeks I have been experiencing a few problems and I'm very pleased to say 'Adam at Slide.com' has very kindly been in touch with his Engineers and they have 'sorted my problem' out.

So this post is for Adam to say thank you!

My Butterflies are fluttering and I'm happy!

Have a good weekend everyone and enjoy the Slide Show!

UPDATE.

I'm back......We had a late Saturday post. The usual Postman is on holiday. So I'm very pleased to be showing you the Squares received today from 'Jean Nock'. 'Jean Nock' has contributed lots of Squares over the months and it's always a pleasure to receive them.

Jean Nock (UK) Your Squares have arrived! Thank You!

The Squares are once again beautiful and I particularly like the Blue and Yellow together. Of course I've been outside into the garden to take some photos.

'Jean Nock' thank you very much and I've made you a Slide Show of course!

I really am signing off for the evening now, enjoy the weekend and I have a hook waiting for me.....

Dear Sue, I've never seen the butterflies fluttering...so a big thank you to Adam!

Art- The quality, production, expression or realm of what is beautiful.

Above is the definition of "art" from my dictionary. Therefore, YOU are an artist and every single person who has sent in a square is also an artist! I am so happy to see all these beautiful blankets with the butterflies fluttering above them. Thanks for sharing this.

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!
