  • Granny and girls are back to crafting and quilting for winter. Check out some low cost ideas for Christmas gifts and Memaw Dixie teaches you how to make a yo-yo quilt!!
    Some Yo-Yo quilt history:
    Yo-Yo Quilts were most popular from the 1920s through the 1940s. Tiny circles of fabric were gathered up at the edges and sewed together to create a three-dimensional effect. Yo-yo quilts were popular for a number of reasons. Women could carry the little circles of fabric with them and make yo-yos whenever they had a free moment. Also, during the Great Depression, because they were made from small scraps of fabric, yo-yo quilts were more affordable to make and whatever fabric was on hand could be used.

    I’m alone in my craft’s. I miss mama who was my crafty companion. Love watching you ladies. Makes me remember wonderful memories. My sister comes down now and then and we quilt and craft together. It’s the best when you have company.

    I agree...if I go to a dollar store I won't pay $5 for anything. I won't shop there. It is ok by me to pay $1.25 but no more.
    Love these sweet ladies.💟

    My mom knew a lady that made round cushions out of some kind of velvet. I wonder if she used a similar method to the yoyo. They looked just like the yoyo's Beautiful work ladies.
