Making Blankets
Blanket Making Guidelines
1) Quilts, blankets, single-layered fleece and afghans must be handmade with new material.
2) Quilts are quilted or hand-tied (every 4-6 inches).
3) Please use soft yarn for crocheted or knitted blankets with ends woven in.
4) Please use only new, clean and washable materials in baby, child or teen-friendly colors with age-appropriate designs.
5) Smoke or chemical smells, pet hair or musty smells may produce severe allergic reactions in the children, and we cannot accept the donation.
6) Please check for straight pins; do not use buttons or decorations that can come loose and choke the child.
7) Approximate size guidelines:
Baby – a minimum 36” x 40”
Child – 40” x 55” to 40” x 60”
Teen – 45” x 65” to 45” x 72”
