Yo Yo Scarfs

The last presents I gave in 2009 are .....

YO YO SCARVES!

If you aren't familiar with a "yoyo" they are small pieces of material gathered in the middle to make a flowerish shape. They are mostly used in quilting-BUT-I recently got a pattern by McCAll's that showed all the neat stuff you can make with yoyos.
But if you know me......you know I didn't go by the patterns....I designed my own! :)
So without further a due....The Yo Yo Scarves

This scarf was made out of cotton brown/blue/green plaid material. It was made with love for my wonderful sister Laura! Maybe next winter Gracie will get one too :)!




The next scarf was made for my beautiful and BrIgHt best friend, Donna! She loves black and hot pink and lives in Indiana...So I figured that this scarf would be perfect for her!And I knew a little bling wouldn't hurt either! :)




This deep purple linen scarf was made for the newly engaged :) Whitney! My college friend and room-mate looks gorgeous in purple, so I thought this was only fitting!




This scarf was made for Sarah, also a college friend/roommate with the best personality! We never planned it-but we always ended up with the "near to same" outfit on everyday! (Maybe that's why I want this scarf!) Even though she lives in California now.....I thought she could still use a scarf! :)

I LOVE mine! I think I will wear it to work tomorrow and watch everyone "oooohhhh" and "aaahhhh" when I tell them my sister made it! :)
