Rag Ball Tutorial

So I made this tutorial for all you ladies. Super super simple.  Just a couple steps to it and your done. You need:
  1. white glue
  2.  poly fil OR fabric
  3. small strips of fabric
I use small amounts of fabric instead of poly fil because it makes the rag balls heavier.


Step #1
Make a small ball of fabric OR poly fil. Hold it in your hand and wrap the strips of fabric around it. Wrap it enough times that the ball of fabric or poly fil is covered.


Step #2
After you have successfully wrapped the fabric around it the way you want it, the end of the strip that isn't attached to the ball, take a small amount of white glue and glue the edge of fabric down. Put it down and let it dry and your done.


Like I said these are super simple to make. Either they make good decor in a bowl, sell them at a show for a few cents each or sell them as a bag full of them.
