the yo-yo quilt i am working on i plan to quilt- i am (appliquing) each yo-yo to a background- when the quilt top is together i will use a batt, and a back - echo quilt around each yo-yo- and do some meandering in the background areas.
some yo-yo quilts- just like cathedral window quilts- are really completed when you finish the top- they are not quilted- or they are tied.
it is a personal choice how to finish YOUR PROJECT
