We will have stations to work on blankets all day. We'll be working together to sew, pin, trim, tie-off, and decorate scores of blankets. All skill levels and ages welcome! It's more fun with friends, but be ready to be going non-stop during this period. We'll have a 20 minute break for lunch. We will work hard to make as many blankets as possible by the end of the day - our goal is 200 blankets!

Mission Statement
Binky Patrol is devoted to reaching out to needy children, including victims of violent crimes, drug-addicted, ill, homeless, neglected, abused, or children experiencing trauma in any way. Binky Patrol volunteers bring a caring, loving touch by creating and delivering handmade blankets, "binkies", to enrich the children's lives and to meet their most basic needs of warmth, security and comfort. Binky Patrol's unique way of touching a child's life includes many mediums. To reach them, "binkies" are distributed through hospitals, shelters, other service organizations, and social service agencies. "Binkies" are to be given as gifts and are not recycled in the agencies.
Description
Binky Patrol's volunteers as well as chapter leaders make blankets which can be crocheted, sewn, knitted, tied, and even quilted for ill and traumatized children.
