The Wishing blanket is a Non-Profit charity that I started in 2011. We make blankets and give them to children who are orphans or in the foster care system. For questions about donating or to contact us please email us at thewishingblanket@gmail.com.

Fabric has taken over my home.
I have not written in a while but I had a busy week and now bring you many updates. Best of all is I purchased half the favpbric we will need for the December due date. There was a giant sale at Joans 60% off some fleece. So using a loan from my parents that I must pay back I filled my cart with fleece and got 25 1 yard fleece blankets waiting in my house to be cut. We were about to purchase the other 25 blankets we needed but the extremely nice lady cutting all that fabric told us we would receive a 30% off coupon because we spent so much and the fabric would stay on sale until next week so tomorrow we will purchase the other 25 2 yard blankets we need. I also received the free coupon card to try out and I am close to deciding whether I will use them to fundraise. We also have received or first donations from my mothers dentist nurses that gave a total of $31 and I will be writing thank you notes and calling them soon. That's all for now, bye
