Peggy Ann, once again, I am disappointed that we have ladies who have not come thru nor posted anything. I read back thru the posts, on round #8 and no one but Judith, you, Linda (prayingranny), Julie, and me ever post on there. Do you hear from them.? I never even saw the other ladies names. I know that a few yoyo's, a tuck-in, and postage may not amount to a large amount of money, but it is hardly fair that we mail out 8 sets and only receive 4. I have received from you, Judith, and Julie. I know this is difficult to deal with and you put up with my "gettin it off my back". I am up for this swap--already purchased some material and buttons so add my name to the list. Thanks for letting me vent! Don't mean to offend anyone. If someone did not receive from me, just let me know, I will make good immediately. Farmgirl #946 Linda (sissarge)
P.S. I promise not to complain again! |

Peggy, I sure hope to join a swap again at another time? However I begin a lot of dental work soon thru the rest of the year.
With dental surgeries and holidays, I'm going to have to pass until after the New Year sometime : (
Gosh, it's crazy to think how close the holidays are!!!
Have fun tho, ladies! I know you will!

Linda

Hi Oleta...sorry, just got back from a Beach Retreat today. I have an Easy to follow Heart Shaped YoYo Tutorial
in the Archives on My Lady In Red Site...listed below. Most of the gals have benefited from checking it out.
Let me know after you look at it...if you plan to sign up.
It's fun and addicting! I think the Heart ones are much more fun than the round ones myself.
blessings and hugs,
peggy

Hi All,
Signing up for round 9! Yes, Peggy it is addicting!! Now that I have my yo-yo's out from round 8 I can begin to work on this batch so I'll be on top of it this time.
I didn't notice a mail out date for the yo-yo's in the post. When will that be?
Will email you my info pronto

Hi YoYo Mama's...
Hopefully You All got your Swap Lists yesterday. I did notice that I spelled Judith's last name
wrong. A slight "fat finger" error. LOL It is "Lickteig"
I got my first set done last night. So fun...in the Holiday theme. It will be really easy this round
since we only have to make five sets. Remember to try to use a different fabric for each YOYO and a different Button too. And only Heart Shapes this time.
Have FUN my Lovelies!!!!  
blessings,
Peggy

Hi Girls...just wanted you to know that I mailed out Your pkgs today.
So, keep your eyes pealed for them!!!
We will be taking a break on making YoYo's until the first of the year.
But if you just have to keep making them because you are so addicted...
Google "YoYo Christmas Trees"...and hopefully you will find a cute pattern for
making them...to help decorate your own Home for the Holidays!
Love To My Faithful YoYo Mama's!!!!

Hi, Peggy! I received your yo-yo's and tuck-ins today! Yo-yo's are beautiful as usual with really different buttons! I won't mention what the tucks are ..don't want to spoil it. But; thank you so much. I will feel funny not swapping these until next year. Feel better soon!
Fibro, CF and my shoulder are wiping me out today. Still will try to mail my yo-yo's later today or tomorrow. Thank you much!
