Isabel' s Ball. The velvet is from my maternity jacket and the floral, satin is from the lining of the jacket. The corduroy is extra fabric from a slipcover I'm making for a chair in my livingroom and the white is from an african shirt that my dad brought back for me.
Benjamin's Ball. This ball is made from recycled baby clothes. The stripes are from two onesies and the solid blues are from 2 separate pairs of pants. Bubba watched me make it from beginning to end and was very patient through the entire process. He touches the stripe parts and says, "O, that's my shirt!" He's very cute!
I'm still learning about my blog and can now insert pictures into the main body of the post. Now, I'd really like to learn how to put a patterned background on my blog but it all seems too complicated for me! And when I try to sit down and think, someone cries or screams or tries to climb up my legs.
I'm off to play now and I'm hoping I'll finish my chair today or tomorrow and I'll put up some picures soon. Ta!
Those are awesome, Darla. Can you make a link to the instructions on how to make them? Or better yet -- do you want to make some for my boys and mail them? :)
