SIBOL Donations from the UK.

Good afternoon,

It's so nice when we can get our Sunshine Blankets further afield.  Gill has very kindly made Shawls and Sunshine Blankets which she is going to distribute to a Home near to where she lives. I have sent her a pdf which she is going to attach to the items and I am honoured that she wants to do this on behalf of our SIBOL Group.

It's great also that she has sent me photos so I can count them in to our totals

Here they are.

Aren't the designs beautiful? I love them all. You certainly are one talented Lady Gill!
We have Shawls too which will be very useful indeed. Thank you.

Your work is amazing thank you Gill.

Donations from Norway.

Good afternoon,

I would like to thank Isrose (RAVELRY) for sending me Shawls and a beautiful Sunshine Blanket called 'Sun Pyramid'.  These items are going to be much appreciated by a local Home I am sure.

It won't be long before I visit a Home as I have a mountain of Blankets already piling up.

Your work is so beautiful Isrose. I am very grateful to you for many hours spent making them. The Sunshine Blanket is an ideal size. I love the design and it will be very useful as a Lap Blanket. The Shawls are so lovely too. Wonderful colours and patterns. So thank you very much indeed.

Here they are....

Thank you so much.

SIBOL Donations arriving today!

Good evening and Welcome!

Today I have received two parcels one from Joyce and Heather and the other from Bettina in Switzerland. May I thank you all very much indeed for sending them to me.

First we have a very bright Sunshine Blanket made and donated by Joyce28. This one is called 'Aloha'. What fantastic Squares in this Blanket! I know it is going to be loved by one of the Residents.

If you would like more information about the Squares in this Blanket please follow this LINK.

Heather has sent this Granny Blanket. Lovely colours in this one and it's called '144 Squares'.

Bettina has sent me 5 Sunshine Blankets today all the way from Switzerland.
Bettina tells me Crocheting has helped her through some very sad days recently and it's so nice to know that her work is going to be passed on to some Elderly Residents who will benefit from her work.

So a massive thank you Bettina. Your Blankets are absolutely wonderful and I am very grateful for them.

How nice of Bettina to Crochet me a little car and she also sent me a gift of Chocolate. Yes Bettina I agree with you it is gorgeous!  Thank you so much for everything you enclosed in your parcel today.

I know your Sunshine Blankets are going to bring lots of smiles!

May I remind you I am in need of Ribbon and if anyone has spare bits lying around please feel free to send them to me for decorating our Sunshine Blankets.

Thanks so much!

A bit of Ireland.

Good afternoon to you all!

Welcome!

I would like to thank U O'Malley today for this superb Sunshine Blanket. 

Una has called this Blanket 'Clew Bay'.

She thinks an Irish resident would understand it as it is a beautiful bay on the West Coast of Ireland. If you look for Google images of Clew Bay you will see hundreds of tiny green islands in a blue sea. 

Your Blanket is beautiful Una and yes the colours remind me too of 'Clew Bay'.

A great name.

Thank you so much for spending the time on the Blanket I will take it to a Home as soon as I can.

WElcome back...

Good morning and welcome!

My little break is over and thank you all for allowing me a little time off.

Today  I would like to show you a Knitted Blanket arriving from Ann H. Made in a pretty peach colour this Blanket is a great size for someone.  Thank you so much Ann for sending it to me.

I love the pattern on this one.

I'm happy now to accept your Sunshine Blankets and Shawls. Butterflies too are always welcome.

May I remind you if you have odds bits of ribbon they are always useful too.

Thanks again Ann and thank you too for popping in to our Blog 'Mrs Twins' and the SIBOL Blog.
