I love to make yoyos....so addicting! So, what cool projects do you make with them. Am afraid to start a quilt, might take forever, lol!

My granddaughter is trimming a purse. Two rows around the base of a drawstring bag.

BTW, pm me your address. I have a few purple squares for you. Judy

Nothing!!! I had made way over 100 yo yo's because I wanted to make a quilt like one I had seen..so got on the band wagon and made all these yo yo's. Ended up tossing them out because I realized I was going to have to make thousands of them and I wasn't going to do that many!!!
I do have a pattern for a vest made from the yoyo's and if your interested in it, you may have it just pm me. :)

i'm appliqueing mine to fabric strips- in different (layouts) the (plan) is to then cut the strips up, frame them with black- stitch together into a quilt---so far i am loving it! and the stitching them down part? when i mentioned to hubby my intent-he said what you said- would probably take forever-it's not so bad- they actually go together quite quickly (i'm stitching around each one with an invisible stitch.

i've seen them attached with just a button in the middle too-
and the little dolls/animals/clowns made out of them are very very cute.

YOU THREW THEM OUT???OH MY GOODNESS- THAT'S THE SADDEST THING I'VE EVER READ ON THE BOARD!
so many people would oh so appreciate things like that...
so sad

Aw, we just have some of the nicest people on our board. I will pm you both! Hugs!

Carrieanne, do you remember Patti's yo-yo quilt?? She said it took awhile, can't remember exactly what she said but it looks gorgeous!!
I love making them too but they are still in a box lol

Here is hers- she just amazes me with her designs :)

While in Lancaster, PA last year we visit a small amish shop. The elderly lady had displayed a yo-yo quilt for a queen size bed. They are diligent workers and she said it took her 6 months to make the top. As we talked she was hand sewing another top(not YO-YO) Those ladies are amazing.

I however don't do yo-yo's unless it calls for one or two.

I love the little yoyo dolls and animals.

I have a idea. Use them for a edge treatment for kitchen valences. Could also make tie backs for the curtains. There are so many uses for these addicting little flowers.
