Donations for Ohio Homeless

Thank you Marjorie M for your on going support of Bridge and Beyond.  I appreciate it and your steadfastness with visiting and commenting on the blog.  Marjorie has crocheted 16 cotton washcloths which I know will be a big hit when their donated to the shelters; along with some personal care items, supplies needed in the meal prep and socks.    The two paisley bags on the right had side of the picture are insulted bags (probably lunch bags?), they can be used in several ways I'm sure for our folks in need.

Keep up the good work Marjorie!

Donating Knitted Slippers

 Thank you Kathy U from West Virginia for these toasty knitted slippers.  I often ask folks in the course of blogging what pattern they use, as many leave comments wondering.  She's included a note telling us she used Bev's pattern for these slippers.  Thanks also for pairing and tagging them with size, it's much appreciated.  Additionally, she's donated a crocheted hat and some person care items.

Many thanks Kathy for your thoughtful donation, it's greatly appreciated.  Please keep up the good work.  Hope to see you here often on Bridge and Beyond.

Here we are the 4rd day in April already.  Aprils focus will be scarves, but I'd also like to continue our focus on afghans and quilts.
