Yarn Donation.

Good Morning,

I would just like to thank Orange Zoo over on Flickr for a very generous donation of yarn received today. I shall be making a Blanket with these beautiful colours for SIBOL.

I'm so pleased you have found a home for your un-wanted stash. We all have phases of crafting and at the moment Orange Zoo is sewing lots of beautiful items to raise money for animal charities here in the UK so the yarn is not needed.


Thank you Orange Zoo. Your donation of yarn to SIBOL is very much appreciated.




Thank you so much Orange Zoo.

Flowers and Butterflies.

Good afternoon,

I would like to show you some beautiful Shawls and Sunshine Blankets that Susan has made. She is taking them into Broomfield Hospital which is only a bus ride away from where she lives. This is a great way of getting our work further afield.

Let's take a look now.


Susan is taking these Shawls and Blankets to Broomfield Hospital thank you!

I have counted these Blankets into our totals Susan thank you.

If anyone else would like to make and donate Sunshine Blankets near to where they live. I can send a 'pdf' label which you could attach.  What a fantastic collection of Shawls and Blankets I'm sure they will be very useful. Thanks for doing this Susan.


Berryqueen has sent me a Shawl this morning. Decorated with a Butterfly and very pretty flowers this is going to be so very useful.  I'm sure one lucky Resident is going to be very proud wearing it.


Thank you Berryqueen



Thank you Berryqueen.



Thank you so very much.

I love your donation.

Another Delivery Day!

Good afternoon,

I'm just letting you know that I had a ride out to The Foundation of Lady Katherine Leveson Care Home this morning. Situated at Temple Balsall, Knowle, Solihull this certainly is a beautiful Home. If you would like to read more about the Home please follow on to their website. Here's the LINK.  Some of our work has been donated there before and Sharon in the office was very grateful for our Blankets and Shawls this morning.

I'm sorry I couldn't take photographs today. It simply was a matter of dropping the donations in to the Office. If you'd like to see what I delivered here's a photo I took yesterday.


Blankets and Shawls ready for the off.



The website is really interesting and tells you all about the Home. Well worth a read.



Thank you Sharon for accepting our Blankets and Shawls.



Before I left this morning I had another Blanket arrive and I'm pleased I could deliver this one too.

Unfortunately, no name was included.

I hope the person who sent the Blanket is popping in to our web site.
Added.......Thank you Charlotte.

Thank you anyway.
