The popular technique of yo-yo quilting—sewing together circular rosettes of fabric to form a quilt—is explored in this illustrated craft guide. A great way to be frugal and use fabric scraps, yo-yo quilting does not require any special tools, and the projects featured in the book make wonderful gifts for any holiday or special occasion. Types of projects vary—from comfy quilts and throws such as the “Flannel Yo-Yo Throw” to stuffed animals such as the “Yo-Yo Black Cat” and household decorations such as the “Yo-Yo Snowman Placemat”—and are designed for a range of skill levels. Color photos of each project are also included to provide inspiration and guidance.
