Snuggle In Your Blankie! My Mother's Gorgeous Blanket For Project Linus

Everyone remembers the lovable, blanket toting character Linus from our favorite Peanuts cartoons whose quirky charm and sweetness touched our hearts every time. Well did you know that you too can touch the hearts of hundreds of traumatized and ill children with the gift of warmth and comfort?

Head on over to Project Linus to find out how to volunteer your time or create a fluffy quilt for a child in need of a little TLC. Each one of these blankets are given to children in hospitals and schools across the country in times of crisis.

My mother is one of the hundreds of women who have given back with their sewing skills by quilting one of these textile sensations. My mom painstakingly stitched and appliqued each one of the bodacious bunnies with extra care in hope that this blanket would soothe away a child's fears and tears and reassure them of a better tomorrow.

Look below at the adorable masterpiece designed using scraps of fabric, thread and most importantly love.
