Yo-Yo Brooches and Headbands

I decided to take a short break from working on cat toys and choose to make some more yo-yo brooches. I am very pleased with how these turned out. Since I wanted to try and add some more variety to the selection of yo-yo pins I used some different cotton fabric and scraps.



Recently we(my fabulous business partner/mother and I) have been toying with the idea of making me some fun headbands out of yo-yos, beads, ect. We have come up with several ideas-They just need to be attempt to see what works. And seeing as a certain blogger loves to make yo-yos it was only natural that my first attempt at making adornments for headbands came in the form of sewing some. I have sewn three of these so far but I will probably sew a couple more at least. Plus we are going to try out some of our other ideas. I will keep you posted. : )

More new fishies!



I got some great bright colored fleece when it was on sale. I love how these two new patterns look on my dead fishies! And it was nice to buy off the rolls rather than just out of the remnant bin. :)
