Would you like to donate a blanket?


Baby blankets of all kinds are appreciated! Quilted, knitted, crocheted, or tied..as long as they are homemade with love!

Some thoughts about the blanket you are making:

It may be themed for a girl, a boy, or gender neutral.

Quilts and tie blankets should be a minimum of 36" x 36."  Knitted and crocheted blankets should be a minimum of 30" x 30."  There is no maximum size (standard "crib" blankets are 45" x 60").

Please do not attach to the blanket any notions (e.g. buttons, ribbons) that may be choking hazards.

This blanket will be used by a baby and therefore washed frequently. Please consider this when choosing fabric quality, batting type, stitch type, etc.

Please check for pins when the blanket is finished.

Simple quilt patterns we have used at our blankets bees will be added here soon for your convenience.

We would be happy to pick-up your donation if you are in Boston or the South Shore area of Massachusetts, or you may donate your blanket by dropping it off at any of the following locations. Please contact us prior to making any delivery to be sure we can be available to receive your donation.
