My questions to you are: what do you use to make your circles? I used a plastic top from Kool-aid, Tang, etc. and these made a decent sized yo-yo. Now that I have tons of scraps, I'm thinking of starting another yo-yo
Thanks for answering and I'd love to see pictures of your projects!
I'm in the final stages of finishing Amy butlers bloom quilt x 2 for my twin GDs.
http://www.amybutlerdesign.com/pdfs/Bloom_Quilt.pdf. There are 275 yo yos each. I made the small ones with the cover yoyo templates, the larger one using the Olfa circle cutter and the giant ones I cut a template from foam board. If you cut all the circles first you can make the yoyos almost anywhere. Planes, in front of tv etc. I knocked out a bunch on the plane to and from. Have fun.
