I heard about the Linus Project (http://www.projectlinus.org/index.shtml),
which funnels handmade blankets to seriously ill children, about ten years
ago, and immediately began a (knitted) log cabin blanket. I have finally
declared it finished, and it needs to be on its way. Alas I cannot find a
postal address to send it to, and my email Sunday evening (via the Project
website) to the central Illinois chapter has gone unanswered. Does anyone
know a postal address I could send this very cozy blanket off to?

According to the website, they want blankets to be sent to a local chapter.
Before sending it off to the National Headquarters, I recommend you contact
them about the lack of response from the local chapter.

I did notice that--but the local chapter isn't likely to be any closer to me
than the national headquarters. I'm going to pack it up right now.
