Remember this sneak peek of this yo yo I shared a few weeks ago?
Well, this...
plus this...
equals this.

I made this pillow for my oldest son and DIL for Christmas. I used the largest circle on the
Accuquilt GO die cutter. I also bought the extra large Clover yo yo maker which fits perfectly with the circles to make all these yo yos. Then I hand tacked each one to the background fabric, made my own fabric covered cord, and now I have a pillow made for the couple.
With Passion,
Carrie P.

Congrats on yet another wonderful finish!!! :-) Have a great raining kind of day stitching away!
That's just adorable!
Very, very cute, Carrie. I love yo-yos.
Lucky couple - beautiful finish.

Very cute!
Very nice! I want a Go so bad! I'm very jealous right now.
Very clever! My mom just discovered yo-yo makers (she says she's the generation that creativity skipped) but has informed me that she has no fabric. I guess I learned the art of lead-weight hints from her...
When next we see her, maybe I'll show up with the Go! cutter (and a stack of fabric of course) and we'll just have a grand ol' time!
They are going to love it! I love to do cording, and I think it makes thing look so professional.
That looks like it went together quickly. I hope they don't read your blog! LOL
Very cute!
Love the blue fabric in your pillow.
I love the brown with the blue and I just love yo yos. A lovely combination. enjoyed your addicts show and tell. Some beautiful quilts.
They should LOVE it! Very clean and fresh looking!
PERFECT! It amazes me how something so simple can be so awesome. Well done. ~karen
