Yoyo Hand Bags

 

the yoyo quilt was a popular style of quilt making in America from the 1920s to the 1940s.  yoyo quilts are popular because women could carry the little circles of fabric with them and make yoyos whenever they had a free moment.
 
yoyo quilts are also associated with yoyo, the toy,  very popular in the 1930-1940s.  this wooden toy with a string looped around the center axis was developed here in the Philippines over 100 years ago, by Pedro Flores, who brought it to the US and sold the Filipino yoyo company in 1928.  In 1932, Donald Duncan, the businessman who bought the company, received a trademark for the word Yo-Yo.

  
the rural and traditional appeal of yoyos get center stage in this line of denim and canvass bags – The Yoyo Bags.  Definitely rural. . .
and fab.
