Squares from the UK and the Netherlands!

Good Evening Everyone!

I hope you had a nice weekend.

Lots of Squares today from Linda (UK) and Diemie (Netherlands).

Let's start with Diemie. Your Squares are lovely thank you so much! It's very nice of you to make Squares for SIBOL! Diemie has sent a 'Textured' Square amongst her Squares. This will be great for our Challenge. Then the others are for my 'SIBOL Stash!'. How wonderful! I'm sure you would like to take a look at them. You may get new ideas from this beautiful collection.

Diemie (Netherlands) Your Squares arrived today! Thank you!

Let's take a closer look now in Diemie's Slide Show. Thank you very much for taking the time to make these they are gorgeous.

I have also had Squares from Linda in the UK. Linda has made gorgeous Grannies, Butterflies and Flowers! How kind thank you so much. One of the Squares is for either the 'Winter Wonderland' or 'Textured' Challenge. I think it will be for the 'Textured' Challenge Linda as we have enough now for 'Winter Wonderland'. The Butterflies and Flowers are just so cute, thank you for making them for me.

Linda (UK) Your Squares arrived today! Thank you!

Don't you just love Grannies?

Here's your Slide Show Linda, and thank you too!

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!
