| Thanks Sunshine, got your email. I have my 50 done and I'll send them along next week. I used 25 different fabrics and made 2 of each, hope that's ok. I may send 50 more by the due date. I have 20 more done, but may keep those for a table topper I have in the works. |

Jennifer, too bad yoou can't get some circles cut to take along in the car for those few moments of hand stitching. I love taking these along to work on during lessons (waiting).
Sunsine, I have 100 done in 6 or 7 purple prints. I have it ready to mail off to you tomorrow. I really like them and need to cut some more. I think they would make a terrific scarf. That might be what I make with mine from the swap.
This is way too cool- we are now wireless thanks to our satellite internet. I am using the small laptop given to me by my SIL when she upgraded, sitting on the deck, listening to the birds and enjoying a little computer time, too. I never thought I would be into the future as we live so rural. It's fun, a new toy, and I am spending less time on the computer as it loads so quickly. Plus, I can see all the pictures now. Yeah!!

wow you have been busy. Yoyos are so addictive at least they aren't bad for you like drugs I am happy to make yo-yos and tons of them and no one gets hurt except for my pointer finger with a prick every now and again.
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe

| I'm going to skip this swap because my daughter is due to have a baby any day now and I can't give my yoyos my all this time around. She lives with us and her and my new grandson will be living here awhile after he is born. Have fun everyone! Sunshines swaps are the very best! Susan |
