    Does anyone have an idea on making quilted Christmas ornaments? I need to make about 20, so should get started on something as soon as I can.

    I made these quilted balls for christmas last year and they turned out so cute! They were a nice sit on the couch and work on type project! I even put DH to work helping put in pins!

    Good for you to be thinking ahead.
    Felt ornaments are pretty easy and fun to make. I just find a clipart image to use the outline as a pattern, then cut, embroider, sequin,blanket stitch the edges and stuff. Try doing a google image search for felt ornaments to get ideas.

    The doll I have as my picture is ornament sized. I made crazy quilt body, embroidered and beaded then inset the face. Here is the Christmas version.
