Knitted Squares from the UK today!

Good Afternoon Everyone!

I do hope you have had a nice weekend.

I'm very pleased to be showing you some Knitted Squares which arrived this morning from here in the UK. Sarah has very kindly made these for SIBOL.

Sarah (UK) Your Squares arrived today! Thank You!

I think the Squares are really pretty, the variegated yarn I think maybe Patons. They look so lovely amongst my flowers. I do hope you enjoyed making them Sarah for SIBOL. I'm really hoping I will have room amongst the Tropical Theme for these Squares.
I've made you a Slide Show Sarah enjoy and thank you!

Created with flickr slideshow.
Jean Nock has been helping me lately assembling some Blankets and I would like to thank her very much.
Today I received a beautiful green, pink and white one back so I'm hoping it won't be too long before I can showcase it. It may be later today, it may be tomorrow.

I'm always grateful for everyone's help, and I am so pleased that you are enjoying the SIBOL project.

Have a lovely afternoon everyone!
Thanks for stopping by.

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!

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!
