While not the newest gadget on the market, Clover Yo-yo makers are certainly one of the most fun things around.  By simply slipping a piece of fabric in the snap-together template and following the stitching guide, you have a perfect yo-yo in a couple of minutes.

If you haven’t tried this gadget yet, I suggest you start with a circle shape and graduate to the heart and flower.  After seeing the circle maker demonstrated at a quilt show, I had to try it at home.  My husband gave it a whirl and soon he was popping out yo-yos as quickly as I was.  My daughter came home from college for the holidays and got addicted too.  Our goal is to make a yo-yo garland for next year’s Christmas tree so we all pitch in when we’re just sitting watching TV.


I’ve seen a resurgence of yo-yo projects such as dolls, table runners, Christmas tree ornaments, and wall hangings.  Have the new yo-yo makers inspired you to create a new heirloom?  If so, we’d love to hear about it.
