Bloggers Unite in Acts of Kindness
Today is a very special day in which Bloggers everyone unite in acts of kindness.
BlogCatalog.com challenged it’s members and bloggers everywhere to do something good offline — an act of kindness — and then post about it, using words, pictures, and/or videos to tell the story on December 17.
I had the privilege to crochet some recycled wheelchair and walker totes for my local VA hospital recently. It was an honor to create my own pattern for a recycled plastic tote bag that could be used on a wheelchair or walker.

Then I was compelled to create a patriotic pattern which I did using scraps of red, white and blue yarn.
Several of these totes bags were crocheted and given to our well deserving Veteran’s at the VA hospital. I also share the patterns here freely to anyone who would like to pass along an act of kindness to a family member, friend, or someone who may need one of these handy bags. It’s a wonderful feeling to do something nice for someone! So go and do it!

How wonderful. My husband is a Vet and we go to the VA in San Antonio. There are so many who have no one to brighten their day. You do much more than that.
God bless.
