Does anyone else have a "thing" fer quilted yo-yos? I absolutly LUV them! I try to put them on everything!! (Yes I really mean everything) I think there is just something Farmgirl chic about them.

do you mean regular yoyos? Yes, many of us make and use them.
did you see the yoyo swap going on?....I think it is under Barter Forum
I will find it for you if you want.
I am in the swap but running behind the deadline.

If you ask for pics here you should get some....do you have pics to put here? I use photobucket to do that.

Welcome to MJs Farmgirls!!

I was in one of the yo-yo swaps too, and I made a vest out of mine. It was alot of fun. When I make aprons I
sometimes use them on the corner of the pockets as decorations, or put them at the ends of the ties or to cover
up where I attach the ties to the apron body. Looks cute.

I saw this gorgeous picture of a bedquilt done in yoyos. I still hate making yoyos, but I think they are real lovely once they are done and all put together. My fingers are just too clumsy to sew all those little stitches to make the yoyos. I will have to look around and see if I can find that quilt. It really was spectacular. :D)

You should buy a Clover YoYo maker. That makes it super easy and they come in different sizes and shapes. ProsserFarmChicks are going a class on them and the Clover faux chenille cutter.

I want to buy yo-yo makers. I know you can do them by hand but the yo-yo makes seem to make them very quick. They are the perfect winter activity to keep hands busy! I wonder how long it will be before Nora wants to try making Yo-yos!
