[QUOTE=maminstl;7409085]I've been making these for just about everyone I know. This was my first batch. I just put them all in a pile and let my friends and family choose.

The cat quilt pattern is in a book called Baby Quilts from Grandma by Carolann M. Palmer. It was published in 1988 by That Patchwork Place, Inc., Bothell, WA. I believe I picked this book up on Ebay. Hope this is helpful.

Ellageo...those ornaments are so cute! Are they modeled after the clothing that they sent? Or, are they actually MADE of the clothing that they sent? Either way, they are so sweet!

I'm working on 2 quilts that must be done by Christmas, 2 more quilts that can wait until after Christmas, mug rugs, pillow covers, yo-yo animal, pot holders...augh! No time for pix...sorry.

I also made some microwave pot holders but did not take a picture of those. How about you, #1piecemaker...where are your pictures of what you are making?
I'd like to know more about the yarn balls. do you use the tail end of skeins? What do you use them for, or are they just to look at? I have tons of "the last bit" of yarn I've never known what to do with.

WOW what a gorgeous collection of gifts being given. There are going to be some very happy people on Christmas Day.

sval, the dryer balls are just that....balls that you put in your dryer while drying clothes. They reduce the drying time & also reduce static. They are dryer sheet replacements. You can lightly scent them with a good quality essential oil if you like.

Here's a link that tells about them:

If you do a web search you can find more sites with instructions.
