Are you thinking of one of these, Mom used to make them and I have a whole tote full then just found more in a second color, in a different storage container, it's a cool looking method !!

Oh yeah, I remember Puff quilting. Is that what you wanted?

hopefully will, pop back in to let us know?? Just thought an example would allow a yea or no, to help find out whats being looked for :D :D

I thought she was talking about the balls that look like they could have been made out of biscuits, with lots of places for a kiddo to grasp. Don't have a picture (except mentally) or a pattern though. Have seen a pattern online somewhere but did not bookmark it...wish I had.

Rosalyn's a clever girl! Loved her quilts and the colours she used.

You know all those polyester knits???? I was into making pull-on pants out of them, so had many colors. Used the scraps and made a 50 inch square puff quilt for the grandbabies. Made a great floor pad and yard blanket. I think it is still tucked away somewhere. I loved that pink and white one that Roselyn made, may just do another one in a soft fabric like that one. They were fun and easy to do while watching TV.

How are the little pillows sewn together?

I sewed mine together by using a machine zig-zag. Just placed the puffs side by side as close as I could get them.

Welcome to the board!! :thumbup:

I think yuesay means those baby grab balls. Here's a free pattern. http://sewing.about.com/od/babyshowe...s/babyball.htm

sorry i have no pic but "mom-6" is right they are actually a ball made of many biscuits

I remeber these, we always called them buscuit quilts

yes , mom-6 it's an actual ball made of little sewn biscuits

So is it the pattern I posted earlier or is it something else? I'm confused! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/s...onfused002.gif

no, ghostrider, i thank you, but that is not the one, altho i will be trying one of those also. this is made with actual little puffs as in puff/biscuit pattern. i can make the puff/biscuits but i don't know how to get, maybe 12 or 16 or so squares to end up in a round ball shape

is this what you are looking for?

people, buddies friends! after wracking my brain, i had a revelation. i could make a puff/biscuit ball like a soccer ball pattern but make each pentagon block a biscuit. now i have to figure out that little trick. i appreciate all your help and if anyone finds a pic or pattern i'm still interested

If you decide to go that route, here's the map of how to put it together. http://www.mathcurve.com/polyedres/i...20ball%202.jpg

thank you, that's a great help
