Items we need

Fleece Tie Blankets

Give a little piece of comfort and safety to survivors this fall and winter by donating a handmade fleece tie blanket!

  1. Measure: Put the two large pieces of fleece and lay them on top of each other like a sandwich.
  2. Cut: Make vertical 1-inch cuts through both pieces of fabric, all around the edges so that it makes many tassels on the outside
  3. Tie: Tie the tassels of the top fleece to the bottom fleece right below it in a double knot all around the blanket. Finished!
  4. Schedule a Drop Off: Email: [email protected] to set up a no-contact donation drop off. Thank you for making a difference!
