Morning everyone!!! Here are the pictures of the cards and picture that I sent for the swap that Deb (Garage Sale Gal) & I had. (She finally got her box...yay!) It was a lot of fun making these and receiving!

Next is a sneak peek at my yo-yo project. It is finally finished and I sent Donna (DONNA'S-In The Attic) the pictures of the finished project. When she has posted them I will post them here too. I like the colors...I didn't stitch the yo-yo's together, I attached them to the project. I kind of like the "shabbier" look of it. Now I can get started on those Christmas gifts!

I guess that's all for now...happy treasure hunting and hugs!

And your yo yo project looks great. I've not made one before...like the buttons in the center!

You get so much done---I need some of your energy! Thank you for your nice comment this morning! I have so enjoyed getting to know you through blogging--I think those danged flamingos were our connection! :-)
I really like your swap presents. The black framed print is sooo cute. Good job girls. Hugs.

Cute! I really like the wire rack you have your picture displayed on.
I always thought I wanted a yo-yo tablecloth...tha was until I started cutting out and making yo-yo's...guess my attention span wasn't that long.
Have fun yo-yoing!

Great swap gifts! I adore those yo-yos. I might have to add that to my to-do list. I think that is something I could do- maybe :) Hope you are having a good week!

Love the yo yo's. Also, your first picking does look yummy - especially the tomatoes.
Ooh! I love the color combo you have going on with those yo yo's! Beautiful! The green card is my favorite! Happy Day!
Very pretty swap goodies.
Your yo yos are looking really good.

I am seeing the yoyo's everywhere lately. I think I need to make some for my little dresses....don't you think? We ate some of our garden tomatoes for supper...yummer.
your yoyo's are so cute.
I love the buttons.
I used to quilt and do more handiwork like needlepoint but alas I have no patience anymore!

Your project looks fantastic. I LOVE the idea of attaching them with buttons to a foundation. Pure cottage delight!
Your yo-yos are wonderful- so inspiring- love the addition of the buttons!
Your swap treasures are fantastic. Love the yoyo's and the colors are great. I would love to make some of these to add to projects. The buttons really make them special!

Hello Sweet Kim,
I love swaps! Your cards turned out so pretty and you are one clver gal! I love to make yo yo's to! I carry a bag of pre-cut ones with me and sew away if I have to wait somewhere!

You are so creative! I wish I was like that. Your things are all great. I'm heading over to Donna's to see your project. I love the little buttons inside the yo yos.
Hugs,

Do you have instructions how to make those yo-yos? I have lots of scraps that I could use for this kind of project but don't know where to start.
