Hexagon and YoYo Diversion

I decided it was time to put a portable projects kit together so that I can putz in other areas of the house. When Sweetie is in the lower level killing zombies (65 and still loves video games) and the like, I would usually bring down a book and cozy up in the recliner and read while Sweetie saved mankind from the zombie hordes. Sweetie would really love it if I played video games too, but I just lose all control of my thumb when things are trying to kill me! And it's never really just me playing the game, Sweetie is right there by my side,critiquing my moves (usually he says things like "What are you doing!?" or "Aim!?" or "It's over there not there!")which only makes my thumb even more spastic.

Anywho, my thinking was that I would be a little more productive (actually finish something)if I put some portable project together.




Used freezer paper, starch, and an ironable hex template to shape these. Sure glad I'm having my eyes examined on the 29th...it sure is hard to see if I'm making a small enough stitch!

Got a few more yoyos done...what to use them on?


Just a view of the backside.

The Shawl Is Quilted and YoYo Made


Yeah...the quilting is done and with only a few mishaps (ripped out stitches).


The backside looks ok...every little bobble and wobble shows...but after it's washed and softened up they shouldn't show as much. Now to bind it and use the tutorial for inside corners that I found on another blog.



It sure is a lot smaller than I thought it would be...but it's a cute little thing!
