Squares arrive from the UK and the USA!

Hello Everyone!

I have some pretty Squares to show you today!

First of all EvelynsStuff (Flickr) has very kindly sent me her 'Circle of Friends' Square. This has come out beautifully and it's actually made with baby yarn. I love the Square, I love the colours. Thanks so much!

EvelynsStuff (USA) Your 'Circle of Friends' Square has arrived! Thank You! Gorgeous don't you think?

I hope you had fun joining in the Challenge Evelyn! Thank you.

Next we have some Squares from Pol here in the UK. Pol had the idea to make a Kite for our 'Young At Heart' Challenge. I think this was such a good idea. I just love the tails. Take a look at this one!

What a good idea Pol! A Kite for our 'Young At Heart' Blanket. Superb! Thank You!

Nice isn't it?

Next we have her Jan Eaton Challenge Square. This is 'Steps' and it's No. 45 in the Jan Eaton book.

Jan Eaton Square 'Steps' No. 45. Thanks so much for the Squares I love them!

I love the Colours you've used Pol. The Squares are just so pretty thank you.

A joint Slide Show for you both today, thank you both so much for the Squares.

Created with flickr slideshow from softsea.

I appreciate your Squares, the time you've taken to make them and send them, thank you so much!
Have a good day everyone!

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!
