Sorry to the ones waiting on my yo-yo's! My internet has been down yet again so I haven't been able to post. The yo-yo's are finally done and on their way ladies!

| Debi, I love the pillowcases.What a great ideal. Thanks for showing us. I think I may just have to do this for my guest bedroom. A friend of mine stitched some on white hand towels for her guest bedroom. And they hang on a towel rack. They look very nice. Farmgirl #946 Linda |

I loved the pillowcases. I think I'm starting to get this. I'm too swamped for another swap now but may give it a shot next time. Thanks to all who tried to explain this to me and I would love to see pics of what you do with yours. Joey

Debi Carr, I LOVE your pillowcases! I just finished a hatband for a western hat. I just hot glued the hearts to a stretchy headband. So the whole thing is removeable. I'll post of pic of it.

Lorraine...don't wait for the next one to start...start making them now because it does take a little while to do 60 to 70 YoYo's to swap.
I had about 40 made up before I even started this swap. So YOU GO GIRL! They are very fun to make and very addicting. I have all my yoyo's sent out on this swap...but tonight I am going to a Craft & Chat Night and I am going to start my Yoyo's for the next round.
blessings,
Peggy

Favorite oldest grand daughter is modeling the hatband I made for my hat. The band is on elastic and can be removed for another hat. Thanks ladies. Now, I will make a table mat with the rest. Thanks, farmgirls! .JPG)

Judith...you don't look old enough to have a grand-daughter that age. She is very very pretty!
And so is your lovely Hat-band!
Oh, you Farmgirls are sooooooo creative with your YoYo's...keep
the pictures coming girls, I love seeing what you are doing with them.

Thanks, ladies. Yep, our family don't make no ugly babies. lol. Sometimes the kids start early to make us grandmas. DGD wants to make barrettes with some of the yo-yo's. I am sure going to let her. I thought the hat band was fun and easy to make.

Susan, thanks for the yoyo's they are great! I love the red plaid one. I received them today! Have a great week! Farmgirl #946 Linda
Elaine, thank you for the yoyo's and the 3 extra ones. I love the colors! Thanks for the swap! Have a great week!
This swap has been fun, can't wait for the next one.! It was 103 degrees here today, and I was up at 6:00 to put in posts for a fence. I was using the tractor, and we have a post hole digger and I got two dug with not trouble, then the third, I was careless and dug in the waterline, so alas, I had to dig a hole bigger and repair PVC, no leaks, so I was able to cover it up and go to the house. Will finish tomorrow. You ladies have a great week! Farmgirl #946 Linda |
