Blanket Guidelines

The following guidelines have been compiled from our Chapter Coordinators and are here to help you with any concerns you may have regarding making a blanket for Project Linus Canada.

• We accept all sizes and shapes; however, some chapters have specific partner needs, so it's always a good idea to check with the chapter in your area to discuss their requirements.
• We welcome all blanket styles, including quilts (both hand quilted and machine quilted), sewn blankets, fleece blankets with a crocheted edge, crocheted or knitted afghans and receiving blankets. Blankets must be new, handmade and washable. Please use only new fabric and acrylic yarns (not wool) for your blankets.
• We have found that knotted fleece blankets are not very suitable for baby blankets. If you wish to make knotted fleece blankets for older children, please check with your local Chapter to see what their requirements are.
• Please use child friendly colors and fabrics and sew or knit them well to withstand lots of use and washing.

Thank you for your interest in Project Linus Canada.
