The easiest, best, fastest way to make yoyos!

The most efficient, quickest and easiest way to make yoyos. Less fabric waste, and the construction will be sturdier.

[@bethperrine6431]

Just found this! Wonderful- thank you!!!

[@laurabarber6697]

Absolutely brilliant! Who's got the time to be cutting things out in circles? And I hate wasting fabric from cutting out the circles! This is such a wonderful idea and solution! You should get a Quilter's award for this one💝🏅

[@judydyer]

very cool yoyos from squares! who knew??

[@eileenfb1948]

This looks much quicker than the round. If I make a bed cover I will definitely do this. Currently I use yoyos to decorate things like lavender bags, etc.

[@kevindysart5533]

The instructions were great, and I love that their is less waste.

[@apronhugsingreeenbay]

BRILLIANT!!! So smart!

[@Elledee8642]

thank you!

[@Bella31127]

I luv this method. Less waste and faster. I'm currently making a yoyo quilt for my daughter's American Girl doll's bed. I wonder, how many yo-yo's did it take to create your grandmother's quilt. It's beautiful. Tfs 💌

[@Elledee8642]

I never counted! I will, next time I think of it! It is coverin a king-size bed.

I love the idea of square yo yos - I have so much scraps which I will be using to make these - Thanks for showing how to do the square ones.

[@Elledee8642]

You're very welcome!

[@sherrillmizioch4137]

This is perfect for me to take on my doctor visits. I need something that doesn’t take up a lot of space is easy to start and put down and this is perfect. Thank you for sharing

[@Elledee8642]

They are addictive - and you can make so many things with them!

[@edbalko3082]

Truly clever and way more usable…and believe it or not I have I have experimented and done the square yo-yos and was surprised with the results…and YOU have got it perfected Young Lady…

[@kristinahohlweg1045]

Thank you, so much better than a circular one!!!

Good idea, I am so happy to discover this way of doing yoyos. Thank you so much.

lol - thanks! The idea popped into my brain after spending hours of fixing my grandmother's yoyo quilt :)

[@LisaLisa-zl9vu]

So pretty. Is there no backing to it?

[@Elledee8642]

no need for a backing. Once each yoyo is made, it is double fabric.

[@sumanbala2976]

Amazing😍

[@barbaranneboyer7997]

dont know about the yoyo,🤭 but your antique suffolk puffs quilt is absolutely beautiful 🥰 just realised it was 8 yrs ago

[@Elledee8642]

Isn't it just, though? My great-grandmother made it and my grandmother always put it on the guest bed for me when I came to visit. It was the only thing I asked for when she died.

[@incanada83]

@@Elledee8642, Even though this video was made in 2014, it is still relevant as you can see :-) Thank you for a fantastic explanation. Your method is for sure a lot easier. And, I like the fact that there is no waste of fabric a lot! You're so lucky to have memories from your great-grandmother and grandmother. I want to say my condolences for your loss, alas, this is life but , not wanting to sound presumptuous at least you have something touchable to hang on. Thank you, and I wish you well :-)

[@rachelgirl3807]

@@Elledee8642 That’s so lovely that you got your quilt. Super special story I just love it 💕 I sure appreciate the video and the touching story. I noticed you have a little notch on your left thumbnail from sewing, it’s just like my Granny 🥰. I didn’t learn to quilt before she passed but I’m learning now. Quick question...I am a new quilter and need yo-yos, your technique looks easy and simple. Would it be easier than the Clover yo-yo maker?? I’ve not done either so I was just wondering before I bought one. I’m not sure on the clover it looks like edges stay raw in the gathered center...not that they would fray if pulled tight. I just don’t know 🙃. It would be awesome if my quilt lasted 80 years 😊 Thank you so very much for the video 💕

Are you sure you want us to see that. We cannot.

[@Elledee8642]

I did my best. I only had a phone camera and I couldn't watch it and do the yoyos at the same time. I am not a pro - I only discovered this great method and am sharing it with whoever wants. It is also a reference for me in case I forget. My channel is not for making money, just for sharing. Everyone else who commented seemed to be happy with it, but again, this is not a professional video nor was it meant to be. It was simply to record this method I invented.

@@Elledee8642 You should be commended for actually replying to the rather rude OP, and so many years after you uploaded this video. Yes, it was a bit hard to see, but certainly not impossible, and I learned a very useful tip - thank you.
