Not sure if this is the right spot but I thought more people would read it here as opposed to the swap spot.
My kids and I are in a yo-yo swap but they made so many. We have extra if any one just wants to trade with me and my girls we would be happy  to trade one for one how ever many you wanted to. We used a cd as our pattern. Post here or email me if you are interested. The girls are trying to get a wide variety of colors for the table cloth they want to make. So the more the merrier.  You can just use scrapes as they would be happy to get lots of colors as opposed to a lot of one color.
Thank you for looking at this and reading it.
Sunshine
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe

Hey Sunshine,
I might be interested from time to time to do this. Only thing is right now I have about 4 swaps going on with folks that I have to get taken care of first, then maybe I can jump in there from time to time. As it does sound fun.

that would be fine with me and the kids.
We would even be good with people just sending the cut circles and we will sew them into yo-yo's you would still get sewn yo-yo's in return. Hows that for a deal.
They just want tons of colors and I think this is the best way to do that. With out the project taking forever ( well past a 5, 7, 8 year old attention span).
If someone wants to do this in 1 or 2 months or more that would be fine as well as they actually have an attention span of about 1 year for a project so we can go in and out of it before they get tired of it not being done.
I am in a few swaps too at the moment embroidery blocks 2 swaps, fall items, yo-yo and a few one on ones ( I was going to do tea towels but I thought doing the yo-yo's with my kids and getting it worked on was more important to them so I am doing this)
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe

| Hello Sunshine, I will be sending about 40 yoyo's your way this week - probably on Wed. I'll send them out. They are in groups of 4's, some are made and some are just cut out that your little sunbeams and you will have to stitch up. No need to send any back to me - they are just kind of extra here that I won't be needing. Someday in the future I will be making one of those clown or doll things out of yoyo's, but that will be long time from now and these yo's are just kind of cluttering up my free space, so please enjoy! I'll let you know the day I send them, just let me know when they've arrived. I thought the plastic over the yoyo's on the table was a good idea - glad you got it figured out where you can use the table and see the yoyo's too. What wonderful memories you are making for your little girls - I think that's applausible (is that a word?) - how about, commendable. You will not regret it and they will remember it always. |

Hi, Sunshine. I would be happy to send off some circles or yo-yos. I ahve often thought of doing them as a take along project. I ahve lots of scraps here and would be glad to put them to use. Not sure if there will be sets of four, but I will try.
Give me a week or two to work on them over this weekend.

Hi, Sunshine. I am completing 32 yo-yos for you and your girls. They are from leftovers from a rag quilt I am in the process of making for my Secret Sister in church. My daughter helped cut them out and tried making one herself while I worked on the rest. It has been a nice project for this cold and windy afternoon. Maybe it will inspire me to make some more this winter as a take along project. If I get the chance, I will make more to send long next week. these will go out in tomorrow's mail. It is NOT necessary to send me any yo-yos in return. These are a great use of the little leftover fabric I had when I was cutting the squares for the rag quilt. They are a gift to all of you.

i wasn't worried Tina every one has busy lives I am no exception I know that htings get pushed back and some things get cancelled I am good either way. I am glad to hear it was just pushed back the girls are very excited by everyones help. CK is in the other room right now making the yo-yo's from the cut circles OregonGal sent. This is jsut a lot of fun. In the end we will have a project that is a true MJF girl table topper because so many other people out sid eour family have contributed to it. I think it is just so neat.
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe
