Happy New Year to ALL Our YoYo Mamas out there!
Thought we better get back to doing this fun swap!
How about:
Two Valentine, Two St. Patricks Day, and Two Easter...
ALL IN HEARTS PLEASE!!!
If You have never done Heart YoYo's before...I have a
Tutorial on My LadyInRed Blog Site. It will be in the
archived articles. They are easy and fun to do!!!
I will take sign-ups until January 18th.
We will mail out February 4th (not the 14th).
Remember that you will make 6 yoyo's per gal that signs up.
So we cut the sign-ups off at 10-12 women.
I always recommend that as soon as you sign-up, that you get
your fabric and buttons and begin. It is easy peasy to make
one set per night of tv watching or book listening. 
So, just pace yourself and ENJOY!!!
You will find that it is as addicting as pop-corn!!!  
Blessings,
peggy

Cynthia, I also received my yoyo's, thanks so much. The yoyo's were very good. and I love the fabrics and buttons. I guess lets face it, I love all fabrics. lol. Thanks for the chocolate, it is very good, love the lavender and blueberries. And thanks for the fabric, like Jenne, said good for more yoyo's. Its 3 in the morning here, and I can't sleep. My mind won't shut down. I have been to bed, and finally after tossing and turning decided to get up and get some hot tea. Do you all ever have this problem?
Thanks again Peggy for hosting, it is so much fun doing this swap. Your hard work is appreciated. I go next Monday to Dr. and it will be my 90 days. Then I see the next step in my recovery, I am out of back brace for good now and doing some chores, mostly taking care of chickens, with all the rain, and cold, hubby just don't want me out, so that I don't fall or step wrong.
Thanks again ladies for the yoyo's its fun to go to the mailbox........Farmgirl #946 Linda |

Perfect timing. I received my yoyo hearts today!
They are so nice and I think the bunny button is

The fabric is perfect for more yoyos and the
chocolate is perfect for ME!!! Thank you.

Your yo-yo's arrived today, Jenne! Perfect little pointy hearts! (Man, I'll have to work on mine.) One would never guess those are your first! Your notecard is really pretty! That's one for my smile board. And, dark, raspberry chocolate...where DID that go...hmmmmmm. Oh, yeah, didn't last long! Thanks, Farmgirl!!!

Thank you all for the kind words. Judith, as a child,I always
had the responsibility of making my dad's coffee. I also, loved
the smell. When I was finally old enough to have some too, I
did not like the taster either. Later, I tried it black with sugar.
Now, I need my daily coffee.
Lovin' these yoyos.

Jenne--I received your yoyo's today, and they are really neat, I loved the material with the buttons, and the love you written on it, my daughter, said mom wish we could find that material, it is really neat. Thanks for the tuck=ins, I really like the postcards that you all tucked in this time, they are hanging in my craft room, they are so cool. And the chocolate candy was great, never had the raspberry filled ones before. thanks again. Farmgirl #946 Linda |

I'm glad you like the yo-yo pkg Jenne! ...and I'm glad you are wearing the clip in your hair..that's my fave way to wear it. I made them for you ladies, and all my dgd and DIL. Can't wait to do something with that fabric. I thought of yo-yo's; but I think I want to see more of the print. Funny, I don't drink coffee; but, I just love the smell of it!

Linda, I received your yo-yo's yesterday! Very nice! I think your whole package just gave me Spring fever! Thank you! I think your letter and the photos were wonderful "tuck ins"! Wow..the "Royal Farm" name was just meant for your farm wasn't it!?! I had to show the pics to DH. I explained your animal menagerie to him also. Getting to know more about you and see a pic of you is really special!

I received two packages today with heart yo-yo's.
They are both so very nice.
Linda, thank you for the yo-yo's. I love the buttons
you chose. I enjoyed your little slide show. What a great
idea! It sounds like you have a nice life on Royal Farm.
Judith, I love the yo-yo's you made. I am wearing the clipped
yo-yo in my hair. I am going to a John Dnever Concert this
weekend and it will add some Farmgirl charm to the event.
Also very nice buttons. AND... the Mary Jane fabric and
postcard. I collect postcards so a great tuck-in for me!
And yes, coffee is the most important meal of the day.
Thank you both for swapping with me.

Thanks PeggyAnn,
I am glad my first attempt at heart yo-yo's
turned out ok. I just love checking the mail
now. Isn't it wonderful looking forward to
Farmgirl packages, instead of dreading those
nasty bills?

Linda...I got your yoyo's today and your cool pictures and letter. I loved them! And that
was just a cool way to let us take a personal peak in on your life. Your yoyo's were great too...
don't want to forget to tell you that. I took a picture but it would not post for some reason.
Hopefully someone else will be able to post a picture. By the way was your Gran-dog a Scotty or
a Schnauzer?
Jenne...got your great yoyos today too and you did an excellant job on them!!! You should be proud
of yourself. I loved all your tucks too! Also, like Linda...I took a picture but when I tried to
post it...it wouldn't post. So, hopefully someone else can.
Thanks girls...it was a fun day at my Mail Box. I got your guy's pkgs and then three boxes
from other Swaps. I felt like it was Christmas all over again.
Big Hugs and Smiles,
peggy

Oh, Joey, it looks like a plate, doesn't it? Actually it is a coaster.
Probably just chipboard or cardboard.

Judith, received your yoyo's in the mail today. Very Very cute! I loved the tuck-ins, and what a thrill to have a piece of MJ fabric. I have looked at it but never ordered any. Thanks very much. I loved all your little cards and other pieces of art. Have a great weekend! Farmgirl #946 Linda |

Linda...Glad they arrived to you and didn't circum-navagate the U.S. again! LOL
I am so sorry you came down with "The Crud" as well as having to heal from your back surgery.
Hope, that when they remove that brace for good...that you will never need to go there again.
We want "Good As New" for YOU dear friend! Thanks for participating through everything you have
had to deal with.
Hugs and Blessings,
