    Default Looking for a pretty and quick xmas quilt ornament...check this out.

    I have made these in the hundreds over the years. They are SO pretty and easy to make. Check out the short video on how to make them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OB9S-rxIe6w They make nice little gifts and I hang them on doorknobs and china cabinet knobs etc. They are addicting..so be prepared to make more than one!!

    Here it is in just picture form if anyone prefers that to the video. http://quilting.about.com/od/holiday...abric-star.htm After doing this thread I went to my craft room and I found a bag of four balls and I have the pins and I know I have fabric in my stash so I think I will be making six at least this Season.

    Thanks for sharing. My friends and I get together periodically for craft days and this idea is perfect to add to one of our future get-togethers.

    You will use up the pins the MOST so stock up on those. Each piece of fabric takes three little pins to secure it.
