Felt Jingle Bell Balls
I always have the hardest time coming up with presents for boys. I was thinking about crocheting balls but I never came across a pattern. Yesterday I searched for "boys stocking stuffers" and stumbled across this free pattern here. (Wait a while for it to load and then click on the picture of the cute fabric balls under "free patterns" and a pdf will open.) Anyhow, I can't remember what blog I saw them on that lead me to the link but she suggested adding a bell inside to make it more fun for the kids and I'm sure more annoying for the parents. Since I don't have any guy fabric I thought I'd make some out of felt. They sewed up pretty fast. Now I just have to handsew them closed. I think the will do for Christmas presents for my nephews. One is just a baby and just got a new dog he loves to play with. The other one is a bit older but loves to throw things so maybe this will be a hit with him as well. We'll see.
