Christmas seems so far away even though I know it is not.

Update on 8/29: Thank you all for your interest in the tree skirts. The next time I do one, I will do a step-by-step tutorial for those of you who are interested. |
I am making Christmas garlands out of Yo Yos. The garland has a picture of each member of the family on a yo yo. I used 3 different size of yo yos. Loads of fun, and great TV watching project. :idea:

I picked up the following magazine: "A Quilted Christmas" By Quilters World fall 2011, It has alot of different items in it. I just completed the Christmas Log Runner on page 43. It is lovely even if i do say so myself. Plus I used scraps for it. I like 7 patterns in the mag which is great for one magazine I think. I will post a picture of it soon

I purchased that magazine too and look forward to several projects from there. The log cabin runner is on my list.

OK I will post a picture. The photos I used the photo fabric and cut them out as yo yos.

Cooky, I used photo fabric to print form my ink jet printer. You can get this a JoAnn's. You could also use transfer paper that you iron on your fabric. Actually that would be cheaper, but I had a lot of the photo fabric. You can get transfer paper at Office Depot or the like. I have included some pictures of the process and the final product. I used about 75 yo yo's to make the garland.
Start by printing up you photo. Follow the instructions on the sheets. [ATTACH=CONFIG]249086[/ATTACH] Frame your picture in the yo yo maker [ATTACH=CONFIG]249087[/ATTACH] Now just stitch [ATTACH=CONFIG]249088[/ATTACH] Finished garland [ATTACH=CONFIG]249089[/ATTACH] On the tree (on my deck) [ATTACH=CONFIG]249090[/ATTACH] |
