Here is a pic of Peggy's yo-yo's! Love those sweet tuck-ins. I just finished the last of my yo-yo's. I thought I was finished, and then...whoops! I forgot the buttons!

Hi, yo-yo mammas! Well, here I am with 7 envelopes filled, sealed and ready to go out in the mail to you tomorrow! I am excited to hear how you like them. We have just 10 days left to mail-out deadline! I know you all are having fun working on your yo-yo's too!

Your envelopes are all in the mail! Yay! Can't wait to get yours too, Linda! Wish I could put in a Fall garden here. At least we still have a few squash, tomatoes and peppers. I need to pick up walnuts for winter cracking. The ground is already covered with leaves. LOOKS like Fall.
( Can't wait for the Fall yo-yo swap.)

Hey YoYo Mamas...for those of you who are done (not pushing you who are still plugging along)...you can start buying your Fall/Winter material (Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas), your buttons and even start cutting out your heart shapes. I already have those three things
done. There are a lot of great materials and buttons out there. I won't even tell you how much I spent on
buttons the other day (I'm in denial) LOL. I will wait until the mail-out deadline is up and then I will post for this next round. All HEARTS THIS TIME/NO ROUND YOYO'S.
Love and Hugs,
peggy

HI Judith...got your fabulous YoYo's (loved the buttons...where did you find those adorable butterfly
buttons??? Too Cute!!) I have a project in mind for those two Hearts w/butterflies. I'll post when
I get it done. Tried to post the picture I took of your yoyo's...and it didn't come through. I will try
again tomorrow. I am getting frustrated trying to post onto this thread as of late. Loved all the
sweet tucks and can't wait to try the Recipe. The chocolate is already gone! You know me and my dark
choc. addiction. Ha Ha! Thanks Sister for both Hostessing and making my day with your FUN PKG.
Love and Hugs,
peggy

Ladies, I have a confession, your packages, only got mailed today, i believe it was on the fifth when I told you they would go out. I promise they went out. I have been sick with a real sore throat, I still have my tonsils, and they took turn being sore, and with a little fever. So my hubby took them, well only to find out, he forgot them in the back seat of his truck. I am so sorry. and He apologizes also. But today, I took them, and personally had them weighed and stamped and mailed. Thanks for understanding. Huggs Farmgirl #946

Hi, Farmgirl friends! Glad to hear you are receiving your yo yo's!
sissarge Linda, you know it's no problem..those things happen all the time to all of us, and tasks get re-ordered. You have plenty of time. I just hope you are feeling better! Tell hubby to come home. All is forgiven. (lol)
Peggy, those butterflies would have been hobby lobby or JoAnn's. Can't wait to see what you do with them.
Prayin granny, can't wait to see which of the identical fabrics we chose.
I've tried several times today to post a pic of a little project I made for SIL's birthday. Just won't process...will try again tomorrow!

Judith...well it still won't let me upload your entire picture of YoYo's and Tucks but it
will let me post what I did with the two butterfly yoyo's. These are big Memo-pads with
Butterflies all over them. One is mine and one I bought for a gift to give to someone else.
But I think your butterflies looks so cute on them. Don't you?
Love and Hugs,

Good morning, yo-yo mammas! Peggy's note pads look really sweet with the addition of yo-yo's! That is a great idea!
I've been trying to post a pic of a store bought hot pad that I sewed both heart and circle yo-yo's into. I think it turned out really cute and will give it to my SIL who loves the yo-yo's. I also used them to decorate handmade gift tags for a recent bridal shower and wedding. Those were very nice, and thank heaven I had them at the time.
So, we have 4 more days for mail out. (no pressure) ha!
I'll keep on trying to post pictures. Let us know how you decide to use yours!

I have fallen behind on my correspondence; I apoligize for not getting this done earlier.
Peggy, I received your yo yos and love them! I have to tell you that I played with your heart shaped fabrics for several days and have a list of ideas for them. Thank you for sharing them and for a wonderful package.
Judith, I received your yo yos too. I love them! And the tuck ins are wonderful! The mini clothspin is adorable! And I cant wait to try the bread, I hope to make it this weekend. Thank you!
Linda (sissarge), I received your yo yos, too. I love them! Your story was so cute. And the nail file is a great tuck in! I just lost one of mine and needed another. Thank you! Thank you!

sissarge, I received your yo-yo's today! Beautiful as always! I loved your story too! I read it out loud to DH while pointing to the relevant yo-yo. I know he thought it was neat too! Thank you also for the tuck!
A farmgirl can never have too many of those.

Well, Yo-yo mammas, today is "Mail Out" day! I hope you all had a great time with Round #8! I'm really looking forward to receiving your yo-yo's. Have a few new ideas for showing them off. I hope you do too!
So far, I have yo-yo's from Julie, Peggy and Linda (sissarge).
Oh! I found some great on-sale Fall fabric for Round #9. I'm getting psyched, Peggy! (Can you tell?)
Thank you all for making this a fun adventure!

Thank you Peggy, for the very kind words!
They made posting pics easier on the forums? But my phone won't let me?
And I'm still trying to figure out our tablet!! Lol!
Have a good day!
