What kind of blankets are needed?

bulletQuilted, sewn, knitted, or crocheted blankets are all welcome
bulletSizes range from baby blankets 30x36 to larger blankets 45x60.  There is a great need for the larger sized blankets.  They will be used for the older children.
bulletCrocheted and knitted blankets should be made with fairly tight stitches.  If they have loops or are loose, little figures and toes or medical equipment might get caught up in the blankets.
bulletBlankets must be new cotton fabric, homemade, durable, and washable.
