Bob's Blankie Brigade

Bob's Blankie Brigade Mission: To provide a warm and loving touch to children and adults in need.

We make blankets - knitted, crocheted, quilted and from fleece - and then donate them to hospitals and domestic violence shelters. Children especially pull at our heart strings and we tend to focus on oncology care. The local hospital requested preemie and chemo caps and we have added that to our wish list.

We have a lot of blankies looking for homes in NYC. If you know of any hospitals or domestic violence shelters who may be interested, please DM me. Thanks!

Today, delivered 30 blankies and quilts to Womanspace for domestic violence shelters and safe houses.

It is with a heavy heart that I need to inform you that my mother and inspiration for Bob’s Blankie Brigade, Marcia Lobman, passed away Feb 17. Over the course of these past several years, we became closer than I ever imagined possible. Until the last few months, we spoke and/or I saw her daily. We shared, tears, fears and laughter and we "never had a fight". I will miss her more than I can say, but I know she is at peace now.

For more information, please see https://www.bethisraelchapel.com/obituaries/Marcia-Lobman/

We have a lot of yarn available for volunteers. Please pm me.

Share Memories and Support the Family.

Hi all. We are trying to find a place that accepts Blankies. COVID resulted in lots of restrictions. So far we have upwards of 3 large boxes ready to go.

Sorry for the silence all. Lots of drama ongoing. We are working on a distribution in Brooklyn and working towards another one in NJ. Please keep checking back.

Working on some quilt panels and looking for a place that is accepting donations during this challenging time. As the weather starts to turn, the need for warm wraps will increase.

Approximately 50 masks finished and ready to be dropped off this weekend. Then back to some quilts!

Be safe out there everyone!
I’m close to finishing a knitted Blankie and will post pictures.
We are thinking of donating larger blankets to assisted living/memory care facilities. We will explore that post-pandemic.

Now, it’s time to go wash my hands ...again. ❤️❤️
