Project Linus

If anyone is looking for a good service project, I found a great one! Last night at our church we made blankets for Project Linus. Project Linus is a national organize that provides security through blankets to seriously ill or traumatized children (including teenagers). (This includes kids in hospital, kids taken by child protective services, and kids whose parents are in hospice care. They take all kinds of blankets from very simple (fleece with scallop cut edges) to quilts and crocheted blankets. Last night we made no sew knotted fleece blankets (very quick and easy). If you want more information or to find out who your local chapter contact is go to www.projectlinus.org. I think it's a great project because you can work on it on your own time, even when your watching TV.
