    They also make a great centerpiece piled in a big glass bowl.

    Very unique. I will be making some (next year). You have a great eye for color.

    I made one of these years ago & haven't attempted another. You do such beautiful work & such variety - your friend is fortunate to have you in his life.

    I found two sites where you can print the directions.
    www.make-stuff.com/projects/quiltball.html
    www.ehow.com/how/_4763238_quilted-christmas-ornament.html
    I also found a site where you do not use pins but poke the material into the styrofoam with a butter knife. My daughter and I made some of these several years ago and they do not last well.
