    I saw a picture several years ago of a Christmas tree wall hanging made of yoyos - unusual looking and attractive

    I knew a quilter once who made some curtains and used yo yo's across the bottom in 2-3 alternating rows. They were adorable! It had a lacey look to it.

    When I was little, my Grandmother made me a Jingle Bell Jack doll out of yo-yo's. He was adorable! I've also been thinking about using some over-sized ones as the center circle on some Dresden Plates. I agree... yo-yo's are too, too cute!

    I was making 2 train quilts for newborn boys (twins) and I used the yo-yo's as the wheels on the train since I didn't want to use buttons. I appliqued around them to make them secure.

    I found a yoyo quilt on pinterest. It had a pompom sewn in the center of them and they were sewn together. I'm hoping to try and make one..... it's on my long list LOL
