round hoop frame, set it upon my bed, which is on risers, pull up a chair and it's the right height for me to quilt.
I suggest if one were to make this quilt, that one should machine applique the yo-yo's on before sewing the blocks together. Duh! You learn from experience. LOL

I started making yo yo's last summer using vintage prints. Going to make a quilt...(right) I have around 100 done and haven't sewn another. I was excited to see this thinking...oh..great use for my yo-yo's. Went to Fons & Porter to purchase the pattern. It is only available if you subscribe to the magazine...Grrr....
