IBQLTN2 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Just a little pun on words to lighten my stress level. Here is what I have been doing with my spare time the last two weeks while hubby is away helping out with all these problems. Thought you might enjoy these are so stinkin cute!! Nastalgia time. when I was a young girl my grandmother made me a yoyo clown doll. I just loved it so when I saw these patterns I had to have them. I have a doggie too but have not made that one yet. The Monkey took 104 5 inch yoyos and 16 7 and 1/2 inch yoyo circles. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustSewSimple Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 So stinking cute!!! When I was in elementary school I had a boyfriend (from 1-6 grades) - same boyfriend. Anyway, his grandmother thought it was so cute that Reggie and I were sweethearts that she made me gifts all the time. They were always yo-yo dolls. This takes me way back to sweet times!!!!!

Little House Creations Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 those are so cute! What a great way to use up scraps - do you have a link to any instructions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBQLTN2 Posted January 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 I have the pattern name at home that I can send who makes the pattern, don't know it right off hand. but they are pretty easy to make except for piecing those tiny heads together takes a little time. I used the Go cuttter to cut the circles so that was a great help!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBQLTN2 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 here is a website where you can find all kinds of yoyo patterns. I just saw the clowm Now I want one of those like my Memere made me when I was little. http://www.indygojunction.com/patterns/yo-yo_patterns/ they are fun to make and if you have a circle cutter it goes much quicker, I borrowed my friends go cutter and made the circles with it. Some were not the right size so i improvised a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
