Crafted, this antique museum-quality Yo Yo quilt displays a magnificent collection of handcrafted yo-yo roundels that are carefully joined together and set on a buff ground. Delightful feed-sack prints with charming floral decorations and soft colors are set inside melon-colored borders that are accented by a row of powdery blue yo-yos. In the central compartment, bold navy and red accents are paired with cornflower blues, minty greens, and a complete palette of feminine pastels. Delicate small-scale floral, Swiss dot prints, gingham checkers, and countrified plaids are combined to create a stellar fabric mosaic with a level of beauty that exceeds the charm of each humble feed-sack print. This awe-inspiring antique yo-yo quilt showcases an amazing collection of fabric roundels that represent a tremendous amount of work and time spent assembling the materials to create this textile masterpiece.
