Peggy, what a cool idea! Your dotees look great up there.
Hang in there, Peg. Time will fly!
Hope you are feeling a little better today, Margo..think of you lots!
Worked on more yo-yo's today! DH gave me a craft table/easel w/stool for Valentines Day.  So, now I have all my little stacks and buttons laid out. All those bright colors just cheer me.

I received my first set of yo-yo's today from Deb!!!!! They are so cute! I am going to borrow the card idea for sending mine out. How clever of you. I didn't want to just put them all in an envelope now I know what to do.

I just finished this Gumball Machine this morning. Another cute way to display Yo-Yo's
from our swaps!
Debi...you are speedy girl!!! I got mine done 2 nights ago...now just have to put them in
cards and they will be ready to go. I see you used easter egg buttons. So did I! Fun huh?
Ok girls hope you are having fun with this swap too...and moving right along in making them.
Blessings,
peggy

| Ok girls, my yoyo's to everyone is going in the mail tomorrow. Be on the lookout, these were fun to do! What could be next????? Maybe one day in the future I could relieve someone and head this up. But until then, I give my support to whomever is willing and able. lol. Ideals: vegetable and fruit prints, red white and blue, black and white, kid prints, possibilities are endless. Thank-you Debi for be willing to be used. Hello to everyone, and have a great week!! Farmgirl #946 Linda |

my apron pocket. It just made my doll! Thanks Friend.
Yes, the lid comes off of the gumball machine. The round glass part
is a small fish bowl. The lid is the bottom part of a small Terra cotta pot. I found everything together in one spot at Joann fabrics.
Except the wooden nobs were in a different area of the store. They are flat on one side. Hope that helps.
Still can't get your YoYo's to post for some reason. Frustrating!

That is sooo cute , I want one. I was going to sign up for the dotee doll swap , but had too many irons in the fire at the time.
I love those cutesy things. I did make one just to try it out( I'll have to send a pic).I crochet those little doll pin angels - which I haven't done for a while, but I have thought about picking it up again. It's my own fault that I'm so busy , I can't pass up trying something different.Oh well it keeps me busy :)
Hugs, Debi #1983 |

Debi...those Dotees are so easy to make. I don't have a sewing machine so mine are all hand
stitched and I can still crank one out in an evening of watching tv with hubby.
Would love to see a picture of the one you made. Also, not sure what the little doll pin angels
are either, would love to see those.
Seriously consider doing a Dotee Swap...who knows maybe we will get to be swap partners. I have
been doing both the monthly dotee swap and the Dotee Adoption Swap. Plus, have made two for myself
and one for my DIL. See, I am addicted to these just like I am to Heart Shaped Yo-Yo's. *wink*

Peggy

Peggy this isn't one I made , but it is like the ones I have made in the past -- by the dozens for a while.
I don't think I have any of my own around. But the bodies are clothespins and the little stands are found at Hobby Lobby ( I know you don't have a HL )
They are cute.

Debi received your yoyo's loved your buttons, and I love the little pinwheel, they were a facination to me when I was a child. I still like them. lol.
Farmgirls--yoyo's were mailed today! Look for them. Thanks for the swap, this was fun!! Lady at post office is always so curious about them, I left one open and showed her, she had to show all the girls in the back room. They loved them. What fun! Farmgirl #946 Linda |

OK Yo-Yo Moma's this is my latest Yo-Yo Heart Plaque. Just finished it tonight.
Decided to add some other MJF Swap things that I have gotten and a few antique buttons.
I will put this away with My Valentine Decorations and hang it up next year.
Just wanted to keep showing you the possibilities.
Hugs,
peggy
