Yo-yo Bracelets and pincushions

Ahh yes, I have been yo-yoing again, and yes it does seem to be a little addiction of mine!

I don't seem to be able to stop making them!
I haven't added the buttons to this one yet but i'm just trying it on for size.

I have made lots of these for mself for the Spring and Summer and I've popped some in the RubyRed Tiny Shop too!


I've also been making pincushions with fabric from my stash


See! Even these have yo-yo's on!

Have a wonderwul weekend!

I intend to get out into the garden

Dear Rachel,

Wish I was as good with needle and threat as you are! You made some lovely bracelets and pin cushions. They look very cheerful.

Wish you a happy weekend!

Lieve groet, Madelief

they are so addictive, so i am glad to see i am not the only one. we have been making them for presents and i have a few necklaces on the go too. as you love making them you could join them and make a cushion front or go the whole hog and do a traditional yo-yo quilt front?
happy weekend and happy yo-yo-ing!
