We will do Sign Ups from Now through Oct 15th
Mail-out November 15th.
Like I tell everyone, start making your YOYO's as soon as you
sign up so you aren't rushing for two weeks to complete them all.
This Round 4 will be a 2/2/2 Round. We will still be making 6 Heart
Shaped YoYo's for each farmgirl who signs up but this time we will
make 2 Fall/2 Christmas/and 2 Regular.
Remember to email me your full name, address, whether you want
Buttons or No Buttons on your YoYo's. 
I have a Tutorial on my blog page if you want directional help! 
OK this will be the Last Round until next year unless someone else wants to take over Hostessing it. 
LET'S GET HAVEN FUN FARMGIRLS! AND REMEMBER DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS
SWAP UNLESS YOU ARE TOTALLY COMMITTED TO FOLLOWING THROUGH!
BLESSINGS,
peggy

| Good evening Peggy! I guess that I will be the first to sign up. Count me in and I prefer no buttons. 2/2/2 should be fun. Farmgirl#946 Linda |

Hi Peggy! I'd like to sign up for this swap but I have a question: do we have to make heart shaped yo yos? Because I have only made the round ones and had no idea there were heart-shaped ones. If so, can you explain to me how to make them?
Thanks! :-)

Thanks Penny for helping Breanna! It really is much easier than it sounds and you have the advantage
Breanna that you have made the other kind before. Some of us never had. It is so much fun and you will
become addicted to making them...just like the rest of us.
Penny...you are signing up too, right????? :+)
Yeah Linda...four of us so far. That is a good start!
blessings,
Peggy

Hi Margo...got you down! Yes,and yes on your clarification question! :+)
Sounds over whelming but it isn't. I can make 10-12 at night watching tv.
Probably more if I wasn't leisurely doing it.
So, much fun!!! And when you start receiving everyones yo-yo's in the mail
it is wonderful to see all the variety of fabric and buttons.

Hey Farmgirls...If you have never made Heart shaped Yo-yo's now is the time to join
this swap for some fun. I have a tutorial on my blog on how to make them and we don't
have as many people signed up this time...thus we will not be making as many to send
out. So don't be shy...give it a try!!!! You will love it! They are addicting!

Margo...Just Four so far this Round! I am afraid that our 2 gals from last round that didn't keep their commitment, have burned and discouraged some of our Heart Shaped Yo-Yo Makers. Which is Sad! Like Penny has said and I totally agree...we can't let one or two women who flake on a swap...ruin the fun for
all of the rest of us. I refuse to allow that myself. I do however keep a mental list of farmgirls that I will not swap with in the future (on any Swap) and will not allow them on any Swap that I Hostess...unless they make amends on their previous Swaps. And there have been Farmgirls...who have gone out of their way to make Swaps "right" with their Swap Partners and have genuinely felt bad about letting others down. Those women I have high regard for and respect for and will swap with them any day of the week. Life does Happen...when we are having fun...but others will understand if you just contact them and explain and then give them a date as when they can expect you to fulfill your commitment.
Blessings,
peggy
