A while back Joanie posted a picture of this quilt she quilted for me, here it is with the yo-yo's do you think with or without looks better???
Thank you.

You'd have to align them dead center or they'll look "off" and be a distraction, IMO.

Beautiful quilt-my vote would be without-it is stunning with its "traditionalism" and lovely quilting-doesn't need the extra. Just my opinion

I woldn't add them. Although pretty yoyos, they sort of look like you just stuck something in the space. Let the beautiful quilt stand along. It will!

Very beautiful quilt! But I do agree that without the yoyos the quilt is great! The yoyos are cute but a bit distracting on this particular quilt.

Being a yo-yo fan, love the placement of these on the quilt! Adds some character! :-)

I like it without the yoyo's. I think they take away from the beautiful fans and the quilting. They look a little like an afterthought. Love your quilt, btw.
