I got the small and the large when I was in Paducah (although the large is playing hide and seek with me in my studio). I just ordered all the rest along with a neez eez and the rest of the fabric I need to do my queen sized Pink Lemonade quilt. I am so excited! They should have a nice clean home to come to.

Is there a square shaped yo-yo maker too? Where can I find that one!

No square one - yet. Just wait, I am sure Clover will come out with one once they get the idea.

okay, I bought a yo yo maker today. I guess I should have looked at the completed size. It's not very big. It works really well, but now I need to buy the bigger one. This one is only about an inch finished. I would have to make thousands in order to make anything.

What is the difference between a yo yo and a suffolk puff?

I visited a Hobby Lobby store when I was in Nebraska and they had fabric that was made up of yo-yo's! I was so tempted to buy some but it was $25.99 a yard. I could tell it was made overseas. It was really neat though, very novel.

I saw that same fabric Linda, but it was only $20 a yard, it was on clearance, but still too pricy for me

Kadie what is a suffolk puff? A yo-yo is usually a 4 inch circle with a 1/4 inch seam that is loosely sewn and you gather the edge then you have a 2 inch circle that is finish on both sides when you are done
Here is an example http://www.quilterscache.com/Y/Yo-YoQui ... Block.html

Looks like they are the exact same thing.

I ordered all of them and they are great! Anytime I have a few extra minutes I make a few more. I love that they make up so quickly! Now to start deciding what I will make with them!
