The Durham Fair Needlework Department has a new category this year to support Project Linus. Enter new, handmade, washable blankets that then are donated to local hospitals, shelters, community centers, and any other place where a child , ages 0-18 yrs may be seriously ill or traumatized. Project Linus accepts quilts, fleece blankets, crocheted and knitted afghans in all sizes and in child-friendly colors/patterns.
