FREE: Clover Yo-Yo Maker (large) for Quilts and Other Sewing Projects

The listing, Clover Yo-Yo Maker (large) for Quilts and Other Sewing Projects has ended.

Want a nice little summer project? Well, I've got just the thing for you!

This auction is for a Clover yo-yo maker. About three years ago I had this wonderful idea that I was going to make all these wonderful projects with these little sewn yo-yos, and you know what? I DIDN'T!

Don't get me wrong, This thing is AWESOME when it comes to making yo-yos; I just found that I really don't care for sewing. I've got several of these in different sizes 'just in case.' This one happens to be a duplicate, and I really don't need that many yo-yo makers!

Clover says that it is quick and easy to make nice shape yo-yos and I agree! Stitch yo-yo's together into various kinds of handwork. This template is perfect for embellishments; for covers, table runners, bags and more. I've seen toys made with yo-yos Approx finished size is 1.75 inches.

The picture is the actual yo-yo maker you will receive. Here is a YouTube video on how to use it (bear with the ad and the cheesy music at the start of the flick -- the actual tutorial is pretty useful!):

I got to the point where I could make a yo-yo in about 5 minutes -- considerably less time than it takes without the yo-yo maker! Like anything else, the more you do, the more proficient you become.

Here is a website that shows how to make yo-yo toys:
