I am willing to give Peggy a much needed break, so please bear with me as this will be my first time hostessing a swap.
For this round we will do 2 St. Pats, 2 Easter and 2 Spring. How does that sound?
Names and addresses will be sent out by Feb.29th. And mail out date will be by March 10th.

Hugs,
Debi #1983

Margo - received your yo-yo's yesterday! What a blessing to come home and find them in the mail. Loved the tuck-ins, I will treasure the recipe you shared (looks yummy!)

See you all in Round #7

I received your yo-yo hearts today, Margo! those bright colors and buttons sure brightened up a dreary, rainy day! Thank you for the tuckins. Love Mary E...wish she still had her magazine. Used to cut out all the paper dolls for the gkids. The recipe looks like one my family will really like. Hugs.

You are hilarious, Peggy! Luckily I had already decided to plug my nose and jump in. Just replied to Margo's post on #7 and decided to check this one out.

I almost missed your "subtle" suggestion.

And, yes, Debi...you be da bomb!

Debi...A Big Big Big Thank YOU for Hostessing this round! You did a marvelous job
girlfriend. And I loved the break. And now with Margo Hostessing Round 7...I think
it would be fun to have someone volunteer for round 8 (you know we are not going to
stop making yoyo's)lol. Do I hear a round of applause for JUDITH?????? Oh, right
I did say volunteer, right? No, pressure Judith. ha ha ha!

hugs and smiles,
peggy

Oh, it's so nice not to be alone. I'm having a hard time getting the needle threader through the needle hole too. So, I try this magnifying lamp DH bought me. Aaack! scared myself to death! Everything was so large..don't know if I will ever be able to use that. Guess it's time to find a needle with larger eye. lol

HI Gals ...want to see an adorable round yoyo project? Go to allpeoplequilt.com
then type in the search line: yoyo easter egg project.

If you like this and want to try it here is what I discovered about printing the
directions: Once you bring up the project...Don't click on each individual page to print pattern instead, look where it
says download project and download it to your computer to save
it. (At this point you will have to sign up for their free
projects newsletter or just make a sign in log). Then when your computer asks if you want to open the download, click on open...
then print the entire project. I did it both ways...and the individual pages were not
complete in their explanation...so use the download project alternative and you will
get all your information. There is a page that shows 3 different size circles for you
to make your own cardboard template from for this project. Just looking at it...I personally
would use Pattern B. ~ Personally, you could do this entire project with your heart shaped
yoyo's too if you tucked the bottom of the heart (the tip)under each other.

Also, they show a Wall Art Piece done in round yoyo's but could also be done in Heart Shaped
YoYo's.

Hope you enjoy this...Let me know what you think.

Blessings,
Peggy

Lorrie and Shelly, I received both of your yoyo's. Both were great, and loved the tuck-ins. This was another great yoyo swap. Shelly don't worry about your buttons, they were fine. I believe its for fun, not to cause stress, or financial hardship on anyone. Hang in there and continue collecting yoyo's with us. The more the merrier. So far everyones yoyo's look great. Have a great week! My weekend was rainy and stormy, but got some inside things done. Huggs!! Linda Farmgirl #946
