Made using the "no-knot method"!
There is actually a knot but it is hidden between the folds so it is not seen on the back. This way, both sides of the yoyo look good.
Voted as best made miniature yoyo at a recent doll club meeting!
The yo yo originated in the 1930's. It was also called puff, pom pom, rosette, pinwheel. Back then, even the smallest piece of fabric was precious. Scraps from sewing projects were used to create coverlets and table covers. Even worn out clothing was checked for a usable piece! This is a perfect way to save pieces of a loved one's clothing and make into a "memory quilt"! I can remember looking at my grandmom's (we called her Babci) yo yo quilt she kept on her porch swing and pick out which pieces came from my clothing!
All of my yo yo's are created the same meticulous way they were back then. With each little stitch, I'm reminded of my Babci and her beautifully handcrafted quilts.
All are carefully handmade from 100% cotton and cotton blends. Colors and prints may vary from photo but will be a nice selection. From my private stash of fabrics collected over the last 40 years. Some vintage, some new fabrics. All yo yo's are stitched using quality Coats and Clark thread.
This is a perfect size for small scale projects like doll clothes accents, miniature Bleuette and Hitty doll quilts, appliques, collage, altered art, scrapbooking. Use to decorate clothing, hats, lampshades, table runners, pillows, frames, curtains, curtain tiebacks, mats, garlands, package ties, placecards. Also may be used as fabric "beads"
to make necklaces or wristbands.
I have included pictures of just some of the ways you can use these little fabric flowers.
