I "own" an online members only craft/chat board...and every year we do a Christmas ornament swap and a Christmas in July ornie swap .
In the past few years I haven't been able to afford to join in the swaps due to money issues ..
But this year I was able to join in the Christmas swap and decided to make Yo Yo angels since I was making Yo Yo's with all of my material ..
As I was working and fiddling my idea changed from my initial idea to what is pictured ..
Every stich is by hand sewing ..
I did use hot glue to put the halo on but everything else is one stich at a time ...and for me that is a BIG thing since I love "instant" gratification of machine sewing for a lot of crafts ..LOL
Instead of Yo Yo's I used material circles to make the "body" and stuffed hearts for the wings ..
I didn't have to buy anything other than glue sticks ..
Everything came from my craft supplies ...
I am very happy with how these developed and the end result !
