Donating Loomed Hats


 Thank you Cassy K from The Peach Tree State, Georgia for your donation of these 10 knitted (loomed) hats.  Nice variety in color and size Cassy.  And special thanks for tagging your hats with the size, that is much appreciated.

Cassy is our newest pair of helping hands.  We're thrilled to have you join us and hope to see you here often on Bridge and Beyond.  Please keep up the good work.


*Please remember to keep your donations free of pet hair.   Lint rollers work fairly well to remove small amounts, but those who's furry friends like to lay on their hand crafted items should launder their donations before mailing them.  It really delays things and makes my allergies flair when I have to launder donations before being able to distribute them.*

Hats are always a wonderful Donation

Thank you Sharon H from South Dakota for these cute cute crocheted hats.  4 more heads will be warmer because of your kindness.  Not only will they be warmer...but they'll feel pretty darn special wearing such cute hats.

Sharon has just published her first book, so  thought I'd share her webpage link (the book is available on her web page )HERE.

Donating Supplies to Help with Meals

 A while back I told you all about Rae's extended ministry of feeding a new group of homeless in a different area of the city.  The folks she had been taking care of will still be tending to by people who helped Rae.  Sadly, there are more folks in need; but the good news is there are more helping hands to help her in the new area.  We put out a call for supplies to help her with meal prep.  Garbage bags are given to those on the streets to put their few belongings in, plastic grocery bags are used to carry their meals in, plastic containers are used for food stuff during and after meal prep.

Many thanks Kerry W from Colorado, our newest pair of helping hands for this thoughtful donation.  We appreciate your support and hope to see you here often on Bridge and Beyond.  Keep up the good work.

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
