Join thousands of other volunteers in handmaking items for the US Hospitals we serve March of the Blanketeers serves!

Fleece must be bought by each volunteer.ass fleece is too expensive to purchase, and ship. Fleece must be bright and cheerful, and avoid smoke and pets that could destroy it. Blankets must be free from drug references, adult topics, curse words, and actual curses, as well as black/ dark backgrounds (with the exceptions of child-friendly Trick-or-treaters, happy robots, planets, and the painting, "Starry Night.")

Corners are to be no bigger than Four-inch squares, and fringes, no longer than four inches deep, by One Inch wide. Please send scraps from the blankets with blankets directly to us. Fleece Blankets MUST be one layer, as two are too heavy for their little lungs, and could spike body temperature.

Each blanket must measure 2 feet on all four sides, and the fringe must be tied individually.

This opportunity is worth TWO Hours of Community service, to everyone who needs it.
