basket o'yo-yos

My children and I have been in charge of a yo-yo swap at MJF that is almost to an end.
We are just waiting for the last 4 people to submit their yo-yo's so we can send them out to everyone in the swap.

The girls are real excited; we are adding all our yo-yo's together to make a tablecloth for the girls' art area. Of course, it will be covered with plastic so they will not destroy it after all the work . The girls are excited to get the last little bit so they can start laying out a pattern.

I just wanted to thank Bridge for the wonderful knob hanger that she sent me for coordinating the yo-yo swap. I think that was real sweet of her. She also sent a secret surprise to everyone else in the swap that is purposely not in the picture so people will not know what it is. Sorry I might spoil the color of the yo-yo's, but not the other things; plus some of these yo-yo's are not in the swap so you won't know what you are getting there, either.

My kids are still making yo-yo's so they just keep adding to the stash. As we sort through the fabric to straighten it out, we keep finding little pieces that we can use for yo-yo's and into that pile they go.
