Beautiful Grannies!

Good evening,

I would like to thank Angela for these beautiful Granny Blankets. Made in such bright and cheerful colours these are going to be loved. I have explained that the SIBOL Project is coming to an end and I'm grateful that she managed to get them to me on time.

Thanks Angela.


Thanks Angela.


Thank you so much for your support Angela.

Next we have two from Liz. Once again it's Granny Love. Don't you just love Granny Squares!
These Blankets are superb thanks so much!

Fluttering Butterflies.

Good morning,

I would like to thank Sharen, MD,  (USA) today for the beautiful Butterflies. I shall make sure I send these off to Homes attached to our Sunshine Blankets. These are the largest ones I have ever received so well done to you! Thank you!

For those not on Ravelry -  I think it is the right time to end the SIBOL Project which was started in Memory of my Grandmother.   I am finding it harder now to find new Homes without going further afield. I will however deliver the Blankets I have here at Home on your behalf.

Over the years we have had many themes and the Blankets and Squares that arrived at my Home have been beautiful. We have also raised money for various Charities which is fantastic.

I have met so many wonderful friends from all over the World  and I still can't believe how this idea to make half  a dozen Blankets for the Elderly grew into a total of 1399! We have made so many Ladies and Gents happy so a massive thank you to all of them.

I have posted on this Blog since 2010 and have done my best to publish photos of your Squares and Blankets as they have come in. It has been an absolute joy to work with you all.

Thanks to everyone!

Bright and Cheerful.

Good afternoon,

I would like to thank Rachel today for a beautiful Sunshine Blanket  received for an Elderly person.

Rachel has been interested in SIBOL for many years and even took part in our Olympic Blanket many moons ago. Her work is so lovely and it's the interest she took in our Group that really touched my heart.  She made her first SIBOL squares 5 or 6 years go for the Olympic Blanket and she is 20 years old now! So she has been following us for a long time.

Her letter today was very nice. Thanking me for the time and effort spent with the project I really appreciated her very kind words. So it is with sadness and joy that she sends her very last Blanket.
