***CHALLENGE***

Fall is here!


Calling All Blanketeers!!!

I Challenge You....To help this be our best year yet. Please help us meet our goal of 2,000 blankets in 2009. We came close last year, but I'm confident with your help we can make it. Requests for blankets come in weekly, and I don't want to turn away any children in crisis. So please help....by sending in a Five Dollar Bill, or a roll of batting, some fabric or yarn.....and I will ensure your donation makes it to the hands of volunteers who will make blankets. Another suggestion: Do you have holiday parties at work, and always wonder what gift to bring for a coworker? Why not skip the gifts this year (do you really need another candle or box of candy?). Ask each coworker to donate a few dollars and then make a donation to Project Linus, which will provide blankets to children. Now that is true holiday spirit

Thank you!!!! Maureen

The campers attending the Nottingham NH Summer Camp designed and crafted a beautiful quilt to be donated to Project Linus.


Nottingham Summer Campers checking out their handy work!

The campers attending the Nottingham NH Summer Camp designed and crafted a beautiful quilt to be donated to Project Linus. The campers spent hours on this quilt, and requested that it be provided to a local hospital to help comfort a sick child. Once the quilt squares were designed, Debbie Merrick prepared the quilt top, added the batting and backing, and tied the quilt in a marathon session during the hottest days of summer! Many thanks to the campers and Mrs Merrick. The quilt was presented to Maureen Brown, the NH Seacoast Coordinator on Project Linus, on August 18th at the Nottingham Community Center.


Woodbury Middle SchoolGroup

Linda Collier is a paraprofessional working in Salem NH. Along with FACS teacher Pat Learned, she works with an after school program making quilts for At Risk Babies. They have done this for several years and recently tried to deliver the quilts from the last few years to ABC Quilts in Northwood NH only to find out the are no longer in exsistence. Project Linus recieved about 15, 36" X 36" quilts from this exceptional group of young people.


Plaistow Brownies

During 2007 our chapter saw a huge increase in the number of younger volunteers ready and willing to make blankets for the children of New Hampshire. From class room projects to Brownie and Girl Scout Troops, family night projects to individual volunteers, these kids really made a difference in their home communites and across the state.
