All pictures used with the seller's permission and without their generosity, these guides would not be effective.

 

# 19: Vintage Random Yo Yo Quilt (with Backing, Batting and Quilting). I knew if I was patient enough, I would be able to find a vintage yo yo quilt that not only has backing fabric, but also batting and hand quilting! The yo yos were made out of depression era fabric and placed randomly together. The quilt maker used a great, striped yo yo border to pull it all together. After the top was made, each yo yo was sewn onto a yellow background fabric. It was then constructed like a vintage quilt ~ batting, backing and quilting.  Each yo yo is hand quilted around.  The finished size measures 62" x 64".

# 20: Vintage, Fuul-Size Sampler Block Yo Yo Quilt. This is another example of a sampler block yo yo quilt. Each block shows a different quilt pattern and is separated by sashing strips of white yo yos. Each yo yo measures 1 1/2" in diameter and the finished size is 96" x 96".  Picture courtesy of ebay seller: church1940.

 

                                              

 

 

 

# 21: Pretty Spring Yo Yo Floral Wreath Wallhanging. This wallhanging was created by the seller and  measures 31" x 31". She used 100% cotton fabric and  yo yos in different sizes. Picture courtesy of ebay seller: lanlan4255.

 

                                            

 

 

# 22: Vintage Christmas Tree Yo Yo Wallhanging. This is a unique wallhanging made to look like a Christmas Tree. It was made out of solid red, light green and dark green yo yos.  After the yo yos were pieced together it was mounted on a thick felt fabric. The finished size  measures 27" x 37", with each yo yo measuring abt. 1 3/4 " in diameter.  I like how they made the tree with two different shades of green. Picture courtesy of ebay seller: jiwas-moshi.

 

 

 

# 23: Unique Vintage Yo Yo Purse. This purse was made out of depression era fabrics and measures about 14" tall, 13" wide.  The strap measures 28" long. The yo yos on the purse measure 1.5" and 2" in diameter. The yo yos on the strap measure 2" in diameter.  It is lined with a satiny fabric.  Pictures courtesy of ebay seller: joaniebug.
