Hey Kathie, woooo, did you hear that???? that was me smacking my forehead...duhhhhh! a colorful christmasy themed YOYO Garland....hummmm, maybe it's not to late to cut/stitch & hang.... looks like I got to go back to Joanns, I was there today, gee what a shame that I have to go back(snicker snicker, wink wink). What a great idea, & to think I was going to use the few I have already made as 'bows" on my wrapped packages. I hot glue gun on little pin backs so the receipiant can wear the yoyo bow as a pin. I glue on little pompoms & decorative christmas buttons & make small bows w/ 1/4" ribbon that also get glued on. Those dawgone YOYO's are soooo versatile.
tata, off to my craft room.

Kathie,
Any chance mine showed up today? They should be there anytime now; I'm just a natural worrywart and I'll worry until I hear they got to your doorstep. Also, I included the postage, and the mail lady said to re-use the envelope (just slap on a new mailing label), but I forgot to put in a self-addressed mailing label-sorry, I'm making more work for you.....At this rate you're gonna bann me from future apron swaps for being a pain in the patoot

| well Audrina...as it just so happens, Kathie is a very friendly swap hostess, and you are in luck, no extra work is too much for her, and actually she rather enjoys the fuss. She needs stuff to keep her busy. Some swap hostesses seem to get their panties in a bind at times, but not this one, she is a gem...you will be happy to know that there are several people like her all over this place, not to say there are none of the other, but let oyur mind rest at ease, you and your minis and anything else that goes along with swappin' are in good hands with our dear dear Kathie. |

I'm so glad they got there and I'm glad you liked the embroidery. What can I say, it seemed like a good idea at the time... Around September, I come up with all these great craft ideas, and by December I'm driving myself nuts trying to get all my "projects" done-I'm sure I'm not the only one! Now, if I could only figure out a way to turn this into an aerobic workout-kinda like those video games that you can only play if you're riding a bike....maybe someone could invent a sewing machine that's run by walking on a treadmill...on second thought, what a terrible idea! Why ruin perfectly good sewing?!?
Can't wait to see the mini aprons-

Some day I am going to have time to sit down and make some of these mini aprons. You girls had wonderful ones for fall and I imagine the Christmas ones are just as nice.
If there is ever another swap with them I'll definitely try to get in on it.

Yes.. Most DEFINATLY!! Start Those Valentine Ones!!!!!!!
Grace.. what do you think about us starting the Valentine ones before the Western ones?
I'm thining if we try to do the Western/ Cowboy/Cowgirl ones..
It's just going to cut us too close..
Are you ok with this?
Unless we decided to do two swaps at the same time????
Or does THAT idea just sound WAY too crazy??
Let me know what your all thinking...!
SO Denise there ya have it Sister Lou.. Two more in the making!!
Take yer Pick.. or pick em both!!!
ok.. back to sewing or painting.. or cleaning.. or wrapping presents.. or reading the Forum..
Or.. Jeez.. what is that Noise?? Oh crap.. It's My husband snoring.. ! He's in here in the office on the bed asleep.. weirdo.. who does this?
What is wrong with this man??
Mental..
ok.. I'm off..
He'll wake up in here all alone & feel.. & feel like.. Oh Crap.. What is That Guys Name??
"Hello.. I'm Stone Phillips from NBS's To Catch a Predator.."
Shoot.. no.. not Stone Phillips.. What the hell is his name??
dammit.. i'll not be able to sleep now thinking of it..
Oh yes.. I'll have to have something Bizzarre pulled up on You Tube for when he wakes up..!
Now Where is that creepy site with the sheep???
