Here is my quilt that I just finished. It's a Fons & Porter pattern called " Essential Irish" from a leaflet they sent me when I subscribed to their magazine. The little yo-yo's were all made using the Clover Quick Yo-Yo maker.

Think i will call this My Blooming Irish Chain

I just ordered that magazine and I hope I get the same pattern!! I love the colors, the yo yo's, everything. I am a huge fan of those yo yo makers--I have all the circle ones. Just beautiful!

Love it! I wouldn't have thought to use yo-yo's like that.

cherylynne 07-17-2011 06:56 AM

Very pretty quilt. Yo-yos have been around forever, but the flowers seem to give the quilt a contemporary look. Love the colors, too.
