Baby items are so much fun to make. I like to have a variety of things to gift and one item that is fun to make and very cute is the tag ball. Tag toys are nice for a little one to grasp in their tiny fingers. I make mine with flannel material. This way I can make use of the left over pieces from my receiving blankets and burp cloths and the toys are nice and soft. I found this pattern on-line a few years ago. The pattern is a PDF file with nice photos and an easy to follow tutorial. You just need a few small pieces of material, ribbon, and stuffing.
