HOW TO MAKE FABRIC YO'YO'S
Materials:
Scrap Fabric
Buttons
Scissors
Pen
Circle
Needle & Tread
Hair clips or broach pins
Step 1:
Draw around 2 circles and cut out.
Your Yoyo will half in size, so keep this in mind when choosing a circle size.
Step 2:
Cut
Step 3:
With a needle & tread sew 1/4" from the end, go around the untie circle.
It might start to pull & look like this.
Step 4:
Pull thread tight & make a couple of stitches to secure your gathers, then knot and trim your thread. Squash your yo-yo flat, with the gathers centred on the top of the yo-yo.
All done!
Turn them into anything. Clips, Broaches, Gift decorations, whatever!!!
Please leave a comment with your link, I'd love to see what you make.
Thanks

ReplyDeleteHi - Just found your blog through the link party "DIY under $5" - Love it already! :) I'm ready to try yo-yo's too, and this is a great tutorial. Thanks for sharing - The double yo-yo's with contrasting fabric are super cute!
ReplyDeleteYou should try making head bands with them? I love all your stuff but am too lazy to make them. Any plans on maybe selling your things online for people like me to buy them from you?
ReplyDeleteJust trying out some more designs at the moment, then I may open up an Etsy Store.
