<p>Fun facts: These fabric rosettes have a long history in textiles.  We call them Pinwheels, but they&#8217;re also known as &#8220;Yo Yos,&#8221; &#8220;Puffs,&#8221; &#8220;Suffolk Puffs&#8221; or simply &#8220;Rosettes.&#8221;  In the 19th century fabric was very expensive and people used every piece they could, so the puffs were used to decorate clothes and household objects.  In the early 20th century puffs became a fad in America when &#8220;Yo Yo Quilts&#8221; rose in popularity.  Today, the rosettes are still used to adorn clothing, bags, blankets and even greeting cards.</p>
