    This is the center of a yo-yo quilt I have designed for son & DIL. It'll be 1500+ yo-yos. Red, black, & red & white. Will have W in the middle for family name , & heart around the "W". Hope to have finished by January. Haven't decided what color backing to attach it to as of yet. Have about half of the yo-yos finished. They are 2" each.

    just have them laid out and not permanently attached yet.

    Wow! I love yo yo's , but maybe not that much to do 1500 of them!

    It is going to be great, great, great. If the yo yo's will be red and black and white, maybe a light grey fabric underneath? Just a thought. No need to decide now.

    Good work, and keep us updated on your progress!
