March for Dimes - Blanket Giveaways!

So, unfortunately I didn't get much response to my post about the Bloggers for Babies group that is walking for the March for Dimes...oh wait, just about no response. Haha, that's alright. Well, I really feel strongly about this cause to help with the medical costs associated with babies born prematurely or with medical complications, so I decided that I would giveaway TEN of the baby blankets that I so love to make!!

Haven't seen them? Go here to see some pictures and read the details of them. They are a soft minky dot material on one side and cotton flannel on the other and measure approximately 36"X30".

How do you get them?? Well, the first ten $25 donations to the March for Dimes through the below link, will be mailed a blanket! Not ready to spend $25? I can do two burp clothes for a $12 donation. High roller? No worries, I will send you a blanket with two matching burp clothes for a $40 donation! They make great baby or toddler blankets. Don't have a child, no worries, this will cover the next baby shower you attend!

Here is a picture of the blanket I ended up making for the last giveaway winner and one of the burp clothes I made recently.

Want to donate and have a baby blanket, burp clothes, or both mailed to you? Click on the "donate now" button below. Then leave me a comment letting me know if you would like a girl, boy, or gender neutral blanket/burp cloth. (Don't know how to comment? That's okay, I can get your e-mail off of your donation). I will get in touch with you and give you several color/pattern options. Also, I will mail these out in the order that people donate them. Please give me up to six weeks to get the last ones mailed out. Thanks!!! :)

Bloggers for Babies 2012





I'm excited to say that I am taking part in the Bloggers for Babies Walk to help raise money for the March of Dimes. Last year this group raised $2400 to help babies! The walk is going to take place in North Tacoma on May 12th at 9am!

Want to help, too?! You can do that in several different ways. You can walk with us, help raise money for this team, you can donate to our team, or if you aren't from the Seattle-Tacoma area, you can go to this website and find a walk near you and join there! If you want to help out by donating click on the "donate" button here:



Or click on the "walk with me" if you are local and want to join this great cause. It's a great way to help out babies in need and get to know some new friends and have a great time AND getting some exercise in, while we walk over three miles together.

Oh yeah, YOU DON'T NEED TO BE A BLOGGER! Not to walk with us or to donate. So, please some join us! We appreciate any donation you can make, even if it's $5, every bit helps.

Head over to Mandy's post for some more information and even see some pictures from the event last year.
