DIY Fabric Yo-Yo Floral Bouquet

How to Make a Fabric Yo-Yo Floral Bouquet with Clover's "Quick" Yo-Yo Maker - Country Peony

Hello from Texas! Elizabeth here, and I am the DIY and Craft Blogger behind Country Peony.

I love creating fabric yo-yos, and I love finding new ways to accessorize and decorate with them. I also love fabric yo-yos because they remind me of the trendy grandmillenial style. Today I am so excited to take a nod from the grandmillenial style to create a sweet and whimsical floral bouquet using Clover’s amazing “Quick” Yo-Yo Makers and some scrap fabric.

I love this project because it is a great beginner sewing project, and you can even get your children involved. I believe it would be look beautiful on your nightstand or as a charming handmade gift for a loved one!

The beauty with today’s project is that you can customize it to whatever color palette you want. When choosing a color palette, I recommend finding an inspiration fabric that you really like as the starting point. Then pull colors from that inspiration fabric. For this project, I used 7 different fabrics to create beautiful dimension and vintage-inspired charm.

The beauty in making yo-yos is that you can use up scrap fabric, and they can be used in many different applications. When sewn together they can make a charming quilt, or they can be added to different projects to create that sweet factor. I have yet to make a quilt with fabric yo-yos, but I love finding other ways to use fabric yo-yos and today is a really fun one! Please enjoy my other crafting projects using the “Quick” Yo-Yo Maker: HERE, HERE, and HERE.
