Recipe for Fun!

Preheat your sewing machine to straight stitch.

Take a stack of Simple Abundance by Bonnie & Camille from Moda Fabrics…

Recipe for fun

…Add a Clover yo, yo maker…

Add a CLover Yo Yo Maker

…and make some yo yo’s!

Yo Yo Magic

Fill a candy jar full of yo yo’s while your working away…Eye Candy

Pour some into a second jar…

Double treats and soon you’ll have a collection…

Triple fun

You’ll find the complete recipe coming soon from Bunny Hill, published Fall 2009.

These make the most beautiful snacks! I’m thinking I may need a jar full in my studio. Just in case company stops by, like Kendal, Brigette’s daughter! She loved these “cute little things”!

I want these yo yo's

I so want these yo yo's

We may need to have a party and serve some up! I have a feeling Kendal’s mom will be making her some very soon!

Hugs,

Anne

    I love yo-yos! I have my grandmother's yo-yo coverlet of feedsack prints that she had tied to a white backing by her church quilt group. It says "Started 1934. Tied 1997". Now THAT'S a UFO! Very pretty display idea you have in those gorgeous jars.

    So cute! I am going to make some pink yo-yos today, to embellish my 5-year-old's sling for her cast.

    okay, I'm intrigued. I've never made yo-yos before but this could be the thing to try.

    Yo-yo's made in the yo-yo maker with a machine straight stitch? How timely! I was going to make some this week for a project, but now will wait for the recipe!

    Yes, I just love these. When they first came out, I got my scraps together – reds, greens and pinks and made 650. Yes, you read it right. I put 50 in a zip lock bag so I could keep count! I just love doing them during sit down time. Thanks for reminding me. I think I'll have some right away!

    I love yo-yos! I have some that came from a quilt my great-grandmother made and I cherish them. I never thought of putting them in a jar. Thanks for the great idea!

    I love all of your pictures. Yes, they are eye candy. I don't think I've ever thought yo-yo's were quite that great until I saw them in your cute little glass jars. And, I love the picture of your spool of ribbon and the ones of your dining room. Your home looks beautiful. Love the pink and white!
