November 8th StitchBird Workshop:: Fabric Yo-Yo- Necklaces!

Fabric Yo-Yo Necklaces

In this StitchBird Workshop we will learn how to create fabric Yo-Yos and then fashion them into nifty necklaces and collars! Fabric yo-yos were popular in the early 19th century as a fun and funky use for leftover fabric scraps. Is is an old-school classic craft!

This workshop requires very minimal stitching, so don't be afraid if you're new to the needle and thread!

You'll find that making fabric Yo-Yos is fun and really quite easy. Once you get the hang of it you can make bunches of adorable yo-yos to embellish and create all kinds of things! They are totally cute as pin brooches, gift toppers, hair ornaments and so much more. Endless possibilities really!

All materials and light refreshments supplied to workshop attendees.
Just bring yourselves!
Optional: Bring a good pair of fabric scissors and fabric you love!
