The first quilt I ever made was a yo yo coverlet that my Granny taught me to do. I don't know what ever became of it. That was about 45 years ago. My granny taught me how to make do, and I don't know where she got that old satin stuff but I remember it was a royal purple. Our town was a big mill town back in the day and I am sure it came from one of the mills.

My sis and I both started another yo yo last fall. It will probably take me the rest of my life to finish. I have bags of yoyo's already. fun to do while sitting and watching the tube with hubs. When I had a few big bags I thought, well, I will sew these up and be half way done. WRONG. I have a queen bed and it covers about a quarter of it. It will be very pretty when done, though.
