Crocheted Donatons and Personal Care Items, Thank You

The coloring is off again today on this photo, but...I now know why.  This is my new camera and right after shooting this photo the message came on the battery was exhausted.  I get exhausted sometimes too, lol.  Anyway, it apparently was fading when the photo from yesterday was taken and I didn't realize the situation.  It's now being charged.  It's the first time since I got the new camera I've had to charge it so I didn't realize.  Love the camera.

Click to see the detail in the scarf our good friend, RoseMarie crocheted.  I love the texture!  Very pretty.  Someone's really going to love this hat and scarf set.  RoseMarie has also donated personal care items, and 3 crocheted cotton washcloths.

Many thanks RoseMarie for your on going support!  Keep up the good work.

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.

Crochet Hats for Homeless Men

Awesome hats donate of nice large, warm, soft crocheted hats from our good friend Marjorie M.  I love the colors...manly colors, and I love the size.  This style is awesome in that it pulls down nicely over the ears or can be rolled for a brim.  Exactly what's needed for our men out in the elements.

YIPPEE Skippy for each and every hat being labeled.  Well done Marjorie, keep up the good work.
