Hi all! Not new to this thread had a different name but forgot my sign in lol. Whould like to join in again, Can i ask a quick question please? Is this the same group as on Raverly Knit a square? I know its the same charity just wondered if it was a cross over group or completly sepertae? Many thanks x

hello and welcome (or welcome back!)
The Ravelry group has quite a lot of overlap but not everyone on the thread goes there. I look in occasionally but not as often as I pop in here

Good morning everyone
Hospital updates ... Dsil in until Monday with pnuemonia
Dmil still in....

My doh's sister arrives today from Aberdeeen and nephew and niece tomorrow to see Dmil so a busy weekend ahead. Think son,dil and William may come too but we will see.

I am making a king size blanket with little squares just now so that will keep me busy for a while!!!

Lovely to see some new members for our happy band.
Take care everyone xxx

Im so hopeless have not been in for ages have caught up with some wonderful news and sad news I see

mrs m - Im jumping for joy fantastic news for the family xxxx

chalky - Im so sorry to hear of DMIL fall and her prolonged stay in hospital also your DSIL poorly too - sending special hug xx

I popped into Chalkys blog earlier as I am dipping my toe into the world of "blogging" I shall not promise big things as Im hopeless as keeping up to date - but my blog is under construction as we speak - anyway chalky, you have put on the most lovely posts in last few days am loving your "3" challenge - this is why Ive been missing a week or so have been trying to do sort my ever on going clutter - as usual to get tidy and more importantly raise a few pennies for my "pots" - lyndyf (loving hands) has a blog (Lindas Crafty Corner) and she has started a "stash challenge" to work through your stash in 2013 and am wanting to join this too - am I taking on too many challenges probably .....................

My "hysterical" looms nearer - 7 weeks now and am beginning to get very nervous about it - more on that soon

Anyway Ive talked about myself too much am sending such a big hug and warm thoughts to all you lovely ladies xx

Just popping in to say hi to you all.
We've had the dreaded cough and cold that is doing the rounds that's why I am late putting up a post on MSE.

I am very happy to announce my 2013 'SIBOL CHALLENGES' and everyone are welcome to take part.

In particular I have a wonderful 'Sight Savers' Challenge which Chalky has very kindly suggested and I do hope you will pop over and have a read through.

If anyone wants to take part in any of the Challenges please note there are 'deadlines' and all Squares need to be roughly 6" Square. I would also need you to label your Square with your name and state which Challenge.

There is quite a large selection of Challenges and therefore I hope something for everyone. Please pop over and have a look.

I do also need new members on RAVELRY in our SIBOL Group and we welcome everyone to join in with us.

OOOh Mrs Twins, were to start??/ I am quite excited by the challenges and am off in a minute to have a pootle with my yarn and see what i can come up with. just what I need something to occupy my mind.

We have had a sad couple of weeks as a dear friend of hubby and the kids passed away on New Years eve. they worked with her for many years and she was wonderful. it was the funeral today but hubby was just too poorly to go. His health has deteriorated this last few weeks and so we are mainly confined to the house, in fact we should have been having DGS tonight but couldnt, which upsets him even more. Had a few scary hours tonight and thought, again, we would need the paramedics but managed to sort him out thank goodness.

I have to say though one thing which brightened up a very bad day was a parcel from dear Chalky, I won her blog giveaway and recieved some very beautiful things she had mostly, made herself. To say it lifted my spirits would be an understatement, everything is laid out on the table so everytime I come down stairs (I have been up and down to hubby all day) and stop to get my breath I can look at all the lovely things and give thanks to such kindness.
