'Fluttering Butterflies'.

Good Afternoon,

This is the second post of the day.
So please scroll down and read 'older post'.
I have a lot to show you.

I am very pleased to be showing you our Butterfly Blanket. Now this is 1 of 2 Butterfly Blankets that I am making and I do still need more Squares for the second. So if you are interested please make a Square and send it to me. sueatpigsty@talktalk.net for my address.

All details are on here 'SIBOL CHALLENGES'.

I would like to thank everyone that has taken part in my Butterfly Challenge. I have received such beautiful Squares and it's been a pleasure to put them together. I am calling this Blanket 'Fluttering Butterflies'. I do hope you will like it.

What a treat for an Elderly person! I am amazed at the variety of Squares received. You really have used your 'creativity'. Thank you for taking the time to make them.

I am sorry I can't show my Slide Show that's due to Flickr changing.

Thanks for visiting today!

x Sue x

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

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!
