Winter is Coming!

It's time for our annual Blanket drive. It will be getting cold here soon on Long Island so it's time to
start thinking about making warm items for the babies. I will be collecting warm things from now until December 1 and then again until February 1, 2017.

I did not receive any donations for our Fall delivery so the hospital will be out of everything by December, if they are not already. 

Here is a list of what will be needed:

Newborn Blankets
Preemie Blankets
Sweater sets
Hats
Burial Garments


Blankets can be knit, crochet or fleece. Think warm, no holey patterns.
Newborn blankets should be 30"x30" on up.

Here are some pattern links:

Happy New Year!
I just wanted to update the site for what we are working on right now. We are currently in the second half of our Newborn Blanket drive. That will go until February 1st. Please check the previous post for
details.
We are also working on our first complete delivery of 2016. That will go on until March 31st. We will be collecting all items for that delivery. Items include: sweater sets, preemie blankets, newborn blankets and burial garments.

I hope we have a very productive year.
Thank you,
Kelly
