Celebrate Down syndrome - T21 Traveling Afghan Project
Pass the word to anyone you know with a child with Down syndrome!
The T21 Traveling Afghan Project was started by CJ, in honor of her daughter Emmalee. Emmalee was adopted at the age of fifteen months and is the joy of her family's life.
CJ taught herself to crochet about three years ago and wished she could make every child with Down syndrome a blankie of their own. She has found an enormous amount of love, support and friendship within her Down syndrome family and she wanted to pass that on. Since she would never have the time (or yarn) to make one for every family, she decided she would make ONE afghan to send to them ALL. And why not chronicle the project in the process?!
The Project grew by leaps and bounds. What began as something fun has become another strand to bind together all those families who share a little something extra!

I've signed up Jonny, Jesse, Daniel and Justin!

Barbara I love all the stuff your blog recommends. I just signed up my little daughter for the afghan project and am telling everyone else to get in on the project too. Thanks so much for all the great info.
