Can you tell I have time on my hands after finishing my project? Thought I'd put it to good use a make a present for a friends little one. Posted the pattern on the right under Free Grand Revival Patterns.
Also, finally posted the link to the Barefoot Roses and Flea Market Bag Flickr group. I know a lot of Barefoot Roses is being sold out there in the world but I don't get to see projects made with it nearly enough. So join the group, I'm dying to see what you make with it!
Thank you! I know I should be able to create this without a pattern, but I seem incapable. You've saved me a lot of time :o)

Cute balls! And I love a pattern--keeps my brain from getting too tired and makes it more likely I'll actually get a project finished. Thanks!

Thanks so much girls. Wasn't sure if such a simple pattern would be silly to put up but I know I like when the pattern part is already done for me so I can think about the design more. So glad you like it. I'll probably be posting more patterns this week as now I'm procrastinating from shopping which I hate this time of year.

These are adorable! I will definitely try this and let you know how they turn out.
Hmmm, I've actually been trying to learn to juggle. How crazy is that-lol? These might work perfectly.
Happy holidays!

Thank you so much for the pattern! My 15 month old twin grandsons love to play ball, but with two other brothers, they often fight over them. I'm going to make a bunch of them, just for the babies!

I love this idea! I think I'll make one with a bell inside for my 9 mo old nephew. What fun!
