    Default Quick "Quilty" Christmas Ornaments to make with old CD's

    I just found this at Fave Crafts. I can't remember the name of this pattern, but people make beautiful pillow tops with a similar method. Turns all those old CD's you have laying around into nifty ornaments. Warning, no sewing, just gluing, but is definitely "quilty". Enjoy!

    Cute, I was going to do the balls but this might work better...I didn't like the idea of the pins. To make it even quicker, you might just cover the back of the CD in fabric without the squares...(I'm feeling lazy)

    That is a great idea! You could cover the back with felt too!

    or even just cover the "ugly" side and leave the shiny side to reflect the lights
