400 +

Between these two jars there are over 400 yo-yos. I have made over 300 of these in the last few weeks while sitting in doctors' offices and at home late at night, staying up with my sick daughter. I really don't have a project for these because they are not in the right set of numbers for the table topper, groups of 4 in CD size.

The little ones are made using a mini CD or mini DVR disc as a template. Those are what I made the most of these last two weeks, in fact all of that size, and a few big ones. In the smaller size there are over 250; I lost count after that and didn't feel like re-counting. The real neat thing about the small yo-yos is that most are made from scraps that one of the ladies in my church gave me about two years ago. The reason that is so cool is, she is in her late 80's or early 90's and she told me they were from her mother's scraps, so there is no telling how old some of the fabric in those yo-yo's is. Truly, some are between 50 and 100 years old, if not older. I need to come up with a special project to use them in. There is some of the real old fabric in the bigger yo-yos, too. Also, there is some new fabric in the small yo-yos.
