Showcasing our 2nd 'Think Pink' blanket raising money for Breast Cancer Care.

Hi everyone!

Ta - Dah! SIBOL 219 'Think Pink' (2).


A special day over on 'SIBOL' today because I am showcasing a very special blanket raising money for 'Breast Cancer Care' here in the UK.  With the help of one of my 'SIBOLETTES' Joanna very kindly offered to collect squares and assemble them into a stunning pink blanket.

Why not pop over to 'SIBOL' and view this magnificent blanket!

Thanks for visiting 'Mrs Twins' today!

A change from Crocheted Squares!

Good afternoon,

I love Crocheted squares of course I do! But I also like Knitted squares and I'm very grateful to everyone that sends them in. Today I would like to show you three blankets which have been assembled by Sally one of our 'SIBOLETTES'. She loves Knitted squares and has such fun putting them into blankets for 'SIBOL'. I'm sure you will agree these are stunning blankets. I would like to thank Caroline in Belgium and also the Craft Groups here in the UK for sending in these squares.

Sit back and view my Slide Show! Thanks everyone!

They are called 'Camouflage' and 'Black Magic' and I know you will be able to tell which is which!
