    A dear friend of mine made this for my birthday! She used her scraps! I wish I would of thought of it!! I'm not sure what those little button things are called, but I think they used to make quilts with them. Maybe "yo yo"?

    Here in Britain, we used to call them Suffolk Puffs, but the term Yo-Yo seems to have taken over. I don't know if they originated in Suffolk - I will have to find out. My granny taught me how to make them when I was about 6 or 7. Very nice gift though, and a great way to use up scraps!

    That's really cute and I love the colors. I wonder if you can have this added to the miniature quilt gallery.
