baby blankets

I just came across this blog, and feel the need to share it with you. If you would like to help your local hospital, I am sure they have similar needs.

I am looking for your help. Hospitals all across the country are in need of small, very small, baby blankets. In cases of fetal demise, babies are so tiny, even the smallest nursery blanket is much too big to wrap around their tiny bodies.

I know how parents feel when they are presented with their tiny baby, for the first and last time. Having to deal with a large blanket that doesn't fit, is a distraction. And, unnecessary.

If you can sew or crotchet/knit, would you please help me to supply blankets for these mothers?


Her current donations will be going to:
Arlington Medical Center
Arlington, Texas

They need 48 small (12"x 12") and 48 medium (24" x 24") flannel blankets.


AND...

Blessings Funeral Home
Mansfield, Texas

They are looking for all sizes, colors and types of baby blankets.

Check her blog for more information and an address to send the finished blankets to. The blog link is greysonsgift.blogspot.com
