Squares made by a Hungarian Lady for 'SIBOL'.

Hi Everyone!

I do hope you will scroll down on to my previous post and read about my visit to Brookvale Care Home in Olton.

Today I have some new Squares to show you. Edit is Hungarian and she lives in Spain now, but her Mother Kati still lives in Hungary. Edit told her Mother about our 'SIBOL' Group and her Mother has very kindly sent in these Squares. The centres are a beautiful shade of Pink, sorry not a good photo to show the colour.

I had fun taking these photos in my garden today.

Some time ago Kati sent these Squares

Edit's mother in Hungary sent in these beauties! Thank you!

so they will be combined in a lovely Blanket.

What a good idea making more to match those already received.

Thank you Kati I am very grateful to you.

Edit many thanks too! Very nice of you to tell your Mother about our Group.

Great Squares.

I enjoyed receiving these today!

Thank you for sending them across the miles!

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!
