We are now on Part 6 of the fabric guides featuring the different ideals you can use for your future yo yo projects. If you are just joining this series and would like to start the beginning, click here: Yo Yo Fabric Blocks ~ Fun Creative Ideals ~ Part 1

 

All pictures used with the ebay seller's permission.  Without their generosity, these guides would not be possible.

 

# 24: Vintage Roman Stripe/Bar Strip Style Yo Yo Quilt. This large, vintage quilt measures 96" x 98".  It is made out of wonderful depression era prints and loaded with novelty fabric! The strips are separated by bubblegum pink yo yos. Every yo yo is stitched together with blue embroidery floss. Picture courtesy of ebay seller: linengirls.

 

                                                     

 

                              

 

 

# 25: Vintage Yo Yo Pin Cushion.  This unique pin cushion is made up of seven solid pink and cream yo yos, each measuring 1 1/2" in diameter.  It measures 4 1/2" wide and 2" high. Pictures courtesy of ebay seller: bhoal404.

 

 

 

# 26: Vintage Star Yo Yo Top. Here is an interesting yo yo top that measures 48" from tip to tip. We believe it was a work in process because it came with additional yo yos. Each yo yo measures 2" in diameter. Pictures courtesy of ebay seller: libertyhill2003.

 

                                               

 

 

# 27: Vintage Grandmother's Flower Variation Yo Yo Quilt. This is Grandmother's Flower Garden Yo Yo Quilt without a path. (To see one with a path, go to Yo Yo Guide Part 4, # 16). It measures 71" x 84".  Each yo yo measures 2 1/2"  in diameter.  Picture courtesy of ebay seller: betty*blackbent.  

 

                                             

 

 

As we have seen, you can make pratically any pieced quilt block, using the yo yo block. (I have also seen an an attempt at duplicating an applique pattern.)  Feel free to forward any comments to me and vote at the bottom of the page.

Feel free to continue on to Part 7, all having to do with different yo yo dolls. Yo Yo Fabric Blocks ~ Part 7 ~ More Dolls
