This is the center of a yo-yo quilt I have designed for son & DIL. It'll be 1500+ yo-yos. Red, black, & red & white. Will have W in the middle for family name , & heart around the "W". Hope to have finished by January. Haven't decided what color backing to attach it to as of yet. Have about half of the yo-yos finished. They are 2" each.

just have them laid out and not permanently attached yet.

You have to be bonkers to do this quilt, or just Yo Yo. Wink, Wink. :roll: :roll: :thumbup:

Wow! I love yo yo's , but maybe not that much to do 1500 of them!

It is going to be great, great, great. If the yo yo's will be red and black and white, maybe a light grey fabric underneath? Just a thought. No need to decide now.

Good work, and keep us updated on your progress!
