    Your ornaments are really cool. You'll have to post a picture of your tree.

    Made a box of bows (see below) which I'll attach with an ornament hanger in Nov. using a glue gun. Also made 6 Spring/Easter ones and three sets of hanging Valentine ones.

    If interested, directions can be found at

    Bought the 3" styro balls at Michael's with coupons and the MANY pins needed at Michael's or JoAnns with 40% off coupons or notions' sales. Be sure to use a thimble.
    I love these. I made several for this past Christmas. I plan on making more for next Christmas. They are so much fun and easy to make.

    i tried these but they were often off center is there an easy way to find the middle of the ball to get started.

    Aren't those fun to make? I made some several years ago. You
    can really get carried away.

    I have to share! I had drawn out a block that I had randomly saw on the computer. Then went to my LQS for ideas how to make this one block an entire quilt. Here's what I am going to be working on. I LOVE IT!
