Monday's Post.

Good Morning,

I have had three fantastic Sunshine Blankets arrive this morning and six

Crocheted Shawls along with a set of pretty Butterflies.

I do like to showcase everything that I receive because I know a lot of my readers

enjoy looking to see what's new and it also gives them ideas of what to make for the Residents in Homes. However, I do also like to acknowledge the person who sent the parcel. On this occasion it is very difficult. No name or email address was enclosed inside the parcel so therefore I am 'unable' to

send a thank you. I have got initials 'JH' and a post code but this doesn't really help me that much.

So whoever has sent me these beautiful Sunshine Blankets, Shawls and Butterflies thank you so much!

A lot of time has gone into the making of them beautiful colours in all of them. I particularly like the cords attached to the Shawls this is a great idea so that the Shawls do not come off the shoulders. This really is a bumper delivery of donations thank you so much!

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.

All details are on

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!
