Crocheted Donations from Pennsylvania Help Ohio's Homeless.

Thank you Margaret E from Pennsylvania for this thoughtful donation.  Nice soft scarves and a couple of matching hats.  Nice for both the men and women in need.  Margaret is our newest pair of helping hands.  Thank you Margaret for joining us, it's greatly appreciated.

No sure why this photo is so dark, the room wasn't plus I lightened it a bit using the photo software here on the computer.  There are several shades of gray's above with the blue and gold.  The picture doesn't really show the colors well.

Welcome to the group, keep up the good work, hope to see you here often on Bridge and Beyond, Margaret E.

Donation Delivered to my Door to Help Ohio's Homeless

Thank you Blanca T for this thoughtful donation and a special thanks for taking the time to drop it off.  Sorry we weren't able to connect with our work schedules, perhaps next time.  I do so love to meet people face to face.  This is donations of crocheted goodies, personal care items, and tote bags.  There are zipper canvas bags, and draw strings which will be perfect for folks to keep their personal care items in.  AND look at the cute hats!  Was a dark dreary day when I took the photo folks so even though I lighten the picture using my software things don't show up as well as I would like.  Please click to enlarge the picture so you see what I'm talking about.

Slippers, hats, neck gators/cowls.  Thank you too Blanca for labeling the items with size....EVERYONE loves that.

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?
