Squares from Scotland!

Hello Everyone!

I must of all apologise to jenniferanne (Scotland) for not posting her Squares on SIBOL yesterday I had trouble logging in. So annoying when things don't work out to plan. Anyway I received four beautiful Squares and I would like you to see them.

First of all a Square which jenniferanne calls 'Spring Window boxes'. This is her own design 'experiment' she tells me and it is just so pretty in the pastel shades of yarn which she has used. Take a look at this one.

This one is called 'Spring Windowboxes' (Her own design) So pretty!

Then we have three other ones which I will show you in the Slide Show I have made for jenniferanne.

The cream one is based on 'Fisherman's Ring' by Priscilla Hewitt.

The one with the lemon diamond in the middle is based on 'Haze' by Jenn Vanderslice.

The pretty lilac one is based on 'Circle of Hope' by Melissa R Green.

Created with flickr slideshow.

I'm sure you will agree they are all lovely Squares and I am most grateful to you. I'm sorry though the light was not too good yesterday, in fact it's not too good today either which is a shame.

I may be back later if I receive any more Squares.

Thank you 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!

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!
