I mailed mine out yesterday! Whew...made the deadline. I even remembered the postage! :0)
Now to start on the fall theme. I am assuming the fall theme starts soon?
I hope so because fall colors are my favorite!

Do you think we'll be able to do a Christmas one? I am making ornaments with last year's Christmas yoyos. I am putting 5 together joined in all the middle of the backs...it gives a rounded shape. Some have a smaller yoyo added to each center...and some have a button. I think they would work good with just the yoyos.

If you all would like me to host the Fall one I am willing. Unless of course, someone else would like to host it. I will wait to get the yo yos from this swap, get them mailed out, and hear from you about hosting before posting info on another one.

I can't do fall, but would love to do a Christmas one... Somehow I end up doing Christmas quilts all the time, and this would be a great way to help use up my stash and fun, too!

glad ya got them

I'm starting on a couple yoyo projects.
Just finished making a wall hanging from last year's Halloween yoyos.
I like it!
Now I am starting on a vest for me out of dark colors and a quilt with the rest of the colors. I'd love to have a whole yoyo quilt!

Robin,
They will probably show up today. I didn't realize you were in WA till I looked to see where you'd be sending from. Your waaay on the other side girl. I'd love to see a picture of the scenery in your state. Dh and I wanted to get stationed in Bremmerton when he was in the Navy but never did. Are you anywhere near there?

Just a quick note on the Fall swap. I have been very busy at work and haven't been getting much done at home, so I am going to have to bow out of hosting the Fall swap.

Yes! I got them...sorry I must have forgotten to tell you. They are all so lovely...I enjoy them soooo much!!! I have sewn them all up together and added more...I'm making a quilt. The yoyos are sewn together on 6 sides so there is no gap. It takes lots of hand stitching but it makes a nice solid warm quilt.
Thanks so much Denise!! Are you willing to do another yoyo swap?

Linda,
I am willing but very busy right now. Dd and her hubby are moving into a new place the end of this month and between work and home and trying to see how we can help and I don't think I'd be able to host one just now. Maybe we could work on one in November for Christmas? I think I could it then.

I'd love to have some Christmas yoyos...I'm just not organized enough to lead the swap. I love using yoyos that my farmgirl sisters have made!
