Default Yo-Yo Dolls

I found a way to use the leftover yo-yos from the summer quilt for Rhys.
Say hello to Jack & Jill & their kids:

I left their faces blank like the one from my childhood that I had briefly.
Do you think I should paint on faces? I'm not a very good artist.
What about hair? Yes or No.
Thanks for looking!
hugs,
dj

Those are so cute! The ones I remember as a child didn't have faces either. I would leave them blank.

mine was a clown and had a face and hair, and a ruffle at the neck and hands and feet.
maybe mine was younger than yours. i was a crazy kid. at eight, i made the yo yos from the size of a spool of thread. they were tiny! and i made him into a clown. came out cute. wonder what ever happened to that little guy?

They now have ultra washable crayons so they can color them, wash and redo.

I remember them but no details. My two Sisters and I never had one.

Oh what fun a child would have drawing faces and having the option to wash the dolls face and redo!
