Awhile back, Sonia bet me I couldn't finish an afghan in twenty-four hours. I bet her I could. She said if I succeeded, not only would she order an afghan for her daughter, Lillian, but she would order one to go to a child of my choosing.
Needless to say, that afghan was finished in twenty four hours and I won!
The problem? Choosing the family!
That's where YOU come in!
Sonia and I decided to run a blog contest in order to spread the word far and wide about the T21 Traveling Afghan Project. Here's the deal.
We give you a blog topic.
You post about it on your blog with a link back to The T21 Traveling Afghan Project.
You come back here and leave us the link to your submission in the comments section. I will then re-link it directly on this post.
In one week, on Friday, August 14th; we will announce a winner.
The winner chooses the colors or color scheme they would like for their afghan (or they can gift it to another child) and I whip it up and send it off at no cost to the receiving family. (I do ask for 2-3 weeks from win to receiving!)
The blog topic is:
Ties That Bind, Connections In The Down Syndrome Community
Go, blog, prosper, win!
CJ and Sonia!

About The Project
There is a very special blanket making it's way from one family to another all over the world.
The common tie? Down syndrome.
Each family who receives the afghan for one week has a member with T21.
They get the blanket, take photos with their family and pass the blanket (and an accompaning journal) on to the next recipient.
One blanket. Fifty US states. Many countries. Hundreds of families. One common thread!
