"I remember using straight pins to put sequins on styrofoam balls when I was younger. It was kind of tedious but fun back then. Now, i think strings of sequins would be so much easier and just as pretty. I have some old ornaments that I thought about getting rid of, instead I am going to rejuvenate them this way."

"Those are beautiful! I need to get more felt I keep coming across things I want to make from it. These flowers look so eaasy that I want to dig right in, but I would probably make them of white and red for the Christmas tree, and other colors for other holidays. Red would be awesome for Valentine's Day, too."

"I think these would make for a great heirloom ornament. I'd take it a step further by saving a piece of each fresh Christmas tree and let it dry during the months after Christmas. Have someone neatly slice the piece of tree to make ornaments. What a perfect way to commemorate each year of a child's life or a marriage by having slices of each Christmas tree and making an ornament for each year from the actual tree the family celebrates the home holiday with. Beautiful, rustic and meaningful!"

"Thanks! That gives me courage to try. ) I didn't receive notification of a reply to my question, sorry for being so late in acknowledging it."

"This one made me laugh right out loud! It has to go on my "to do" list for sure. I am not that good with needle and thread, but I will try it for sure. I can just see it hanging on the tree and people giving it a double take."

Introducing one of the newest yarns from Red Heart Yarn is Bunches of Hugs. This yarn is the perfect combination of soft and durable for baby to be wrapped in. If you loved Baby Hugs and Anne Geddes yarn from Red Heart then you're going to love this one just as much.

Bunches of Hugs is a medium worsted weight yarn made of 100% acrylic, making it nice and soft. These big balls of yarn come in both solids and prints and depending on which you choose for your next project they come in different yardage; the solids come in 948 yard balls and the prints come in 678 yards. The variegated prints come in colors like dragon, fairy tale, princess, and magic, while the solids come in colors like capri, splash, tutu and rain. The variegated colors make fun self-striping designs that you will fall in love with. Because there are a variety of colors in these skeins, they are sure to coordinate nicely with the solid colors.

These larger value sized balls are great for larger projects like baby blankets, sweaters and cardigans and even decor items like baskets and rugs to decorate baby's room. Bunches of Hugs was tested for harmful substances and is Oeko-Tex certified, so you know this is a great, safe yarn for those new babies. Keep in mind each color does come from a dye lot, so you'll want to be sure to buy enough yarn from the same lot to complete your project. You are allowed to machine wash and dry your project, but do not iron it or bleach it, as you know is the same with most yarns.

If you're looking to try out a new type of baby yarn then this one should be added to your list. The sweet colors will be perfect for baby and you'll simply love any project you work up.
