Yo Yo Blossom Skirt

 
here we go...
steal this skirt.
easy as pie!

 
first make a pencil skirt
like they show you here.

 
then make 16 or so yo-yos in different sizes
like This.
Then use fabric glue to pin them on with some snipped out leaves.
Then stitch them into place with a back stitch and a blanket stitch.

So? What are you waiting for?

    Darling. Looks wonderful on too. GREAT idea. Sometimes wonderful ideas don't look so great made up. Yours is a real keeper. Love it.

    Your skirt is just precious, but I'm going to make a hula hoop tomorrow. I am in love with the Fourth marching band in the earlier post. Makes me want to run off and join the circus.

    Oh I love this! I've been making yoyos for a few weeks now as it is the perfect lunch-time picnic activity that I can do at work ;) Mind are a little messier than yours though, yours are so equal on all sides! Must try harder...
    Thanx for your comment on my blog btw, it made me smile :)
