Request a Hand-Tied Blanket

for mamas of angel babies to have something to hold

Something to Hold started as a way to show love to those walking through the loss of a baby through requesting a blanket to be sent to these families. Here is how you can request a blanket!

These are our community made hand-tied, fleece blankets for mamas experiencing miscarriage, stillbirth or infant loss. We pray these blankets offer comfort during an impossible situation.

If you are in need of requesting multiple blankets, please come back to this page after you have completed each request to submit an additional form. Each form = 1 blanket request.

Read through this page to before submitting your form. Please direct any additional questions to our contact form!

Privacy Promise : Information shared with us is kept private unless otherwise specified. These are not our stories to tell & we have so much respect for these mamas & the loved ones requesting these blankets. Both the information of the requestor & the recipient will remain anonymous unless otherwise stated.

  • 1. Request a blanket for someone you know or for yourself here.


    2. Submissions are anonymous unless you answer “from, [your name]” on the form.


    3. As resources are available, our team puts together a blanket and prays over it.


    4. Each blanket includes a letter from our founder, Abigail - a fellow mama of loss.


    5. Once completed, you will receive a confirmation email that the blanket is either ready for pick up or has been sent out for shipping. Please check spam folders.

    6. Our timelines are based on the resources we have. We depend on our incredible community to keep us filling empty arms.

  • Pick-up is available in St. John, IN & is highly encouraged if local.

    We do not “charge” for these blankets to be made or even shipped! Any donations to help cover these costs are very appreciated! Donations are tax deductible & your email receipt should be kept for your records.

    Donations made to help cover the cost of shipping insures a quicker turn around for what we are able to accomplish.

    Shipping costs are roughly estimated to $10 per blanket.

  • Outside of mentioning the gender, specific colors & patterns cannot be requested or guaranteed. Each blanket is prayed over for the mama and baby(ies) it represents. In doing so, we ask that God places the exact blanket in the arms of the right mama. We have heard beautiful stories how specific blankets have resonated beautifully with families “unintentionally” when we know it was all God’s doing. With that said, we do not and cannot promise any specifics when it comes to the pattern of the blanket being sent. We take into consideration as much as possible the requests given, but at the core, we leave the doors open for God to work in His very seemingly yet non-coincidental ways.

Our blankets are gifted through donations!

There is no cost for our blankets. We are able to fill arms through generous donations from people like you. As you make a request for a blanket, you will have the option to include a donation, not required.

Here are some guides or you can choose an amount you feel led ⤵

$10 covers the cost of shipping | $20 covers the fabric for a blanket | $30 covers the blanket & shipping fees

This is set up as a product page & it might say “buy” but know that it is all a donation that directly benefits STH. More donation options available on our donations page. We are so thankful for your generosity.

the impact of these blankets shared here

  • I sent two blankets, one to a friend and one to my sister who lost their babies. They both were extremely touched and felt very seen. They expressed how happy they were to have something tangible to hold to remember their sweet babes. The blankets themselves are lovely and I would 100% recommend sending one to any mama who has lost a baby at any stage. It is such a gift to the mom.

  • I think that this is such an amazing thing to do for those dealing with infant loss, ectopic pregnancy or miscarriages. I had a ectopic pregnancy and my left tube was so damaged they had to take it out. I’m 33 years old and I do not have any kids yet! I pray that my future babies to come will be strong and healthy and to the little one who was unable to join me and daddy earth side, we will love you forever and remember the joy you gave us when we found out we were pregnant!

  • Something to hold is just that -After now 2 miscarriages I can't help but feel empty and that I have nothing from my pregnancy or baby I lost to commemorate or just physically see, touch or hold. Im so grateful I get to have a soft blanket to hold and snuggle!

  • Thank you for creating this. One of the hardest things about losing our son was not having him to hold at home. Though this doesn't completely bring that feeling back, it helps a bit.

  • I praise God for such a wonderful ministry. After my daughter went to be with the Lord, a nurse sent me one of their blankets. It was comforting to me as I held it close. Now, I can’t wait to pass on that comfort to a neighbor whose baby passed recently. I look forward to giving it to her as she grieves her own loss.

  • Even as a two time mom of loss it’s hard to know how to comfort a friend going through the same. My friend was so appreciative to have this blanket to hold and remember her pregnancy. Being able to give her something tangible with meaning made me feel like at least I could do something to help her. Thank you ❤️

  • I’m so thankful for this program. When you lose a baby, it’s hard not having those tangible things to look back on. To others, it’s just a blanket, but to me it’s a reminder that my arms don’t have to be empty.
