Flower Squares & Blue and White and What's Your Favourite Square?

Hi there, I thought I would show you a preview of the squares I am sending to Sue for SIBOL

The two squares with the flowers in the midddle are Grandmas Garden Squares - pattern from Michelle at Loving the Vintage, her squares are smaller, but I made mine into six inch ones for this project.

This is my "Choppy Seas" Square, it has a sort of twisted shell pattern in it.

I was thinking back over the squares I have sent for the SIBOL project - and I think I have a favourite - do you have a favourite square you have sent - maybe you could show which one it is/was?

This one is my favourite - because it is in intarsia and took me a while to do and I was really pleased

with how it turned out. Look forward to seeing other favourite squares!

Speak soon xx

SIBOL Squares From Australia By Annette Young.

The Lost Stash by Sally 'Chunky Hooker'.

Whilst rummaging in the scrap cupboard, I heard a plaintive cry " She never looks in our little bag, Can you tell me why? " A voice replied, "We're old and tatty, A little bit worn out, Our colours dull, our fibres matted, Now don't give me that pout!" "But I want to be a 'Sibolette', I really, really do! To be part of a Sibol, Made by the lovely Sue. It's my destiny, my dream, my fate!" The voice was getting higher, "I may be old but it's never too late, I'm not ready to retire". "Oh gosh", I thought, That sounds like me, Slightly worn, with a dodgy knee. So I'm off to college, A Diploma to gain And the voices of the Lost Stash? "Sibolettes" they became!
