Well, new to me anyway. Looks like they've been around since Sept. 2003, but not that many members and not all that chatty. Maybe too busy crocheting.

<<Join us in our effort to provide every new baby born with Down Syndrome a handmade hug.
If you or someone you know would like to volunteer by creating handmade items to donate, or by donating supplies to create handmade items, please join us.
Every new parent of a baby born with Down Syndrome is confused, scared, and wonders what will happen next. I believe that every extra touch is important.>>

Hmm, but isn't every new parent confused, scared, and wonders what will happen next--and sometimes what will happen after that. But, no matter, I think this is a great idea. And I'm all in favor of any little extras for our kids with a little something extra.
We were pleasantly surprised on our second trip to NICU to find that Robert had been given a nice little red bear Beanie Baby, gift from Beanies for Preemies. Charlie never got one. He didn't get any handmade hug, either. All he got was a fuzzy, white teddy bear from the wonderful people at Bausch and Lomb who make those $200 aphakic contact lenses. Sheesh, what a deal. Oh well, shouldn't look a gift teddy bear in the mouth, or is that eye?
Okay, all you crafty crocheters and crotchety craftiers, here's your chance.
Cheers,
Bob, Charlie and Robert's dad (lefthanded and awkward, definitely not crafty)
