                      | Grace, I love seeing all these pretty yo-yos that you have made!  My Mom made one into a bedspread for a single bed that was just beautiful.  It went to my oldest sister to enjoy many years ago.  I can't even imagine how long it took her to make enough of those little yo-yos to make a bedspread??!!! 
 I think I had a yellow yo-you like the photo when I was about 8.  There were no little girls my age in my neighborhood so I grew up with the next door neighbor, Bobby, as my pal.  We played marbles, sledded on snow days, and he taught me how to work a yo-yo and even do Walk the Cat trick.  I remember practicing over and over to be able to do that trick!

                      | Hey Grace Guess what arrived today! What a great surprise. I pinned it to a curtain to see how it looked and I just may incorporate it into a curtain. Scooter and I loved how the light comes through.
 
  
 Thank you lots and lots!

                      | Judith, what a gorgeous yo-yo panel that Grace made!  The colors are beautiful . 
 Grace your talent for making these adorable yo-yos is amazing!  And the fact that you can make them while watching TV is really impressive.  If I tried doing anything while watching TV, I can assure you it would be all messed up@@LOL!!  My brain only seems to do crafts with undivided attention.
