I found the magazine for the YOYO Quilt. It's Better Homes and Gardens Quilting Magazine from this month. It calls for 409 YOYOs. Instead of the colored top one on the front of the cover, I got black. In the article it says that black will show off the YOYOs better. I am hand sewing each YOYO in place per the instructions with basting stitches. I suppose you could use your sewing machine. I do the stitching while watching TV with hubby. I'll send picture at some point. This weekend being Easter we are going to visit our daughter and son-n-law. Actually I will probably take the project with me and work on it while we are there and maybe get my daughter to help. Going to Florida May 3-11 and may take it with me and work on it while we are relaxing at our friends home.
