You two are just a little ahead of me. I started making them in January and I probably have about 75 so far. At this rate I should have enough for a coverlet when I'm 150 years old!

I'm sure you will treasure it forever.

The young ones do like to try to make yo-yos. I usually let them, but not always use them in a project.

That is fantastic! It is certainly a work to be proud of!

Your coverlet is beautiful.

Thanks for posting the pictures. I've been making yo-yos for a very long time. When people ask me what I'm going to do with them I usually just say "I don't know". Now I KNOW!

I'll print off your picture and show them - then they won't think I'm Crazy!...at least as far as fabric is concerned.

I LOVE the CLOVER plastic yoyo maker - I wouldn't make yo=yos without it! It's definitely worth the $7-$8 for it. The one I use is 45mm and makes yoyos about 1 3/4" wide.
