Stuffed Snowball! Inspired by the design from dragonflyer, I had to make one! I'm going to make more for my grandchildren, I'm sure they will love these.

This pattern fits in a 5x7 hoop, and stitched together by a regular sewing machine. It's a very quick and fun project. I hope you like it, it's available on my website. Hugs, Yoriko

I know I like it. What a great gift for kids who don't see snow. Or for kids who are stuck in the house because they have too much snow.

Hey we have lots of snow & the kids & adults alike LOVED mine last year. At first they just looked @ them & then me & never said a word but you could see on their faces DUH Mom. as Time went on there was a wee bit of bickering then our oldest grandson picked up a ball & then it began over an hour & a half later even the grown ups got into it. I just sat back & enjoyed the fun my family was having with the DUH Mom balls!

I remember when my son was 6, and we made a snowman and put snowballs all around him. I really miss the winter time with snow :)

ask Carolyn if she misses hers, WE have none yet but I know we will get it soon enough. Not much of a novelty for us but I can appreciate you misses it since you don't often see it. ~hugs~

Yes, it has been hot in tweed heads too, and I also can see all ages playing with these. My husband gave me an idea to make them as keyring, but they are too big for keyring, I think.

It's way to cold here for snowballs, ice balls these days :)
These are a great idea!

The credit for the idea is for dragonflyer. I also think this is a great idea, loved them as soon as I saw dragonflyer's project.

It's so cute, it's a pity we don't have snow here on the east coast, isn't it Yoriko? Love Chris

Yes, it is a pity... they say this will be a very hot summer time, I am so glad I work in an air conditioned place now. Love, Yoriko

What fabric did you use? I can set the grands out the back with a bucket of water and a pile of these to amuse themselves until lunch is ready.. Marian

I used fleece for mine if that helps @ all
by manami 03 Dec 2014
I used polar fleece, but any other fleece fabric will work. Thank you Marian! Thank you Loralye!

Beautiful job on your snowball. I just bought this set during their recent sale and hoping to be able to stitch a few of them myself
