For any of you who wanted to know the complicated process I complete every day, written with a smirk!!
First cut a circle out of fabric, most of mine are cotton but you can use about anything. Heavier weight needs a much bigger circle though. Mine are only about 3 inched in diameter, I would suggest bigger. I had 700 done already this size because, well, I think I am a bit insane sometimes!
Using a simple running stitch, just in and out, all around the circle creating a hem and a finished edge.
Then start to pull the thread tight. Make sure your gathers are tight and the hole will be small.
Keep pulling until you have that little yoyo like you have seen 50+ times in the past few months.
Yes this is as exciting as my Sunday is. Hopefully this week will be more productive for me. How are your weekends for the just ones in your life?
so why do some fabrics need to be bigger - and why would you suggest larger circles??
