A Beautiful Vintage Yo-Yo Quilt Handmade by my Grandmother
This colorful vintage yo-yo quilt is a one-of-a-kind family heirloom, completely handmade by my grandmother.
Measuring approximately 80 × 92 inches, this substantial textile features approximately 1,500 individually gathered and hand-stitched yo-yos in a wonderful variety of vintage fabrics. The distinctive pink yo-yo border adds a charming finishing detail.
The quilt is in excellent condition and has never been repaired.
Unlike a conventional quilt, this piece has no separate backing or batting. It is constructed entirely of individual fabric yo-yos sewn together, with the reverse showing the gathered backs and hand stitching.
Its generous dimensions make it suitable for decorative display, use as a bed covering, or addition to a collection of vintage American textiles.
This is not a commercially manufactured quilt. It was completely handmade by my grandmother and represents an extraordinary amount of individual handwork. This is a genuine family piece with a special history and has been carefully preserved over the years.
