National is kicking off a new fundraising campaign on January 17, 2026. It is the Virtual Quilt & Blanket Show. You can make a blanket, either a quilt or an afghan (no fleece), take a picture of it and submit it to National. You are allowed only one submission per person. The theme is to celebrate the 30th birthday of Project Linus. The blankets must be no smaller than 40"x40" and no larger than 55"x60". Fifty entries will be showcased and you can vote for your favorite(s) beginning February 7. One dollar per vote with a minimum of $10. Prizes will be awarded on February 21st to first, second and third places. This is a national campaign so you will not be able to designate a chapter to receive the funds. More details will be posted on the national website the first week of January.
Scappy Sewing With Patty will be back beginning March 21st. There will be a total of 7 patterns offered...with maybe a bonus or two added!! Watch for the information to be posted as the date nears.
The Knit & Crochet Along will be pushed back to October of 2026 with sign ups beginning in September. Again, watch for that information as the date nears.
The 30th Anniversary of Project Linus t-shirts will only be available in the store until June. Look for them at www.projectlinus.org and click on STORE at the top of the home page.
