Here is a covered soft ball I just made for a quilt contest. We work next to a baseball field and the softballs come in our yard and damage our building during the weekend. I usually find one to three a week. Well we have over 30 this year. So I decided to make something with them since we are not giving them back and this is what I came up with. Took me three times to get the size covering right and just used all my scraps from projects and the scrap bags from Buggy Barn they offer once a month for $5. Good deal if ya can pick one up. This is what I came up with. No pattern yet, but if it does well in show, will make for craft show and gifts for my quilt friends.

This is so fun looking. What a creation (smile). Thank you for sharing.

Too cute!

You must live near the Quilt Barn! :-D

You are so very clever. He is a winner.

Yes, I live near enough to Reardon to be sure and get there at the first of the month and get a couple of bags and the great buy on fat quarters, $1.5 ea.

Cute, cute, cute!!!

That's so cute!

I just hope he does well at the show.

Very cute! Just curious why not give the balls back?

I think i will modify colors and make one in brights like a clown. That would be cute. i have about 35 more balls to go. LOL
