Birdie ball « I knew that!

Birdie ball

Here’s the latest ball doll: a birdie ball. I loved the little lamb so much, I just had to make a little spherical friend for him.

Bird’s eye view! I crack myself up.

I’d have made more this weekend, but I did this instead (sorry so blurry; inadvertently left the camera in close-up mode):

…and, now that I can FIND my fabrics, more ball dolls are forthcoming soon. Since I’ve done land and air animals, it would only be fair to do a marine creature next. I’ve already designed a fish…but an turtle might be cute, too…

So cute!
Is he stuffed with something squishy, or filled with a solid ball?

My gosh. This is awesome. I think I’m going to be needing to make (or buy?!) a whole set of these adorable little guys.

These are so cute lisa! You’ve inspired me back. Now I want to hit the ball toy design again. I think yours are much cuter than my first one!

I’m so jumping on the “Awww” & “Cute” wagon. They’re so freaking adorable. You are such a creative genius. I’m just completely fascinated by your ball-nimals. Are you going for the whole zoo? I hope so. I can’t wait for some more. And, no, I’m not going to attempt to make a ball-nimal myself I’d be so depressed if it looked any less cute than yours.

This is a fantastic series! Please write up a how-to book with all the variations–I love owls and fish–just saying…
