World's Smallest Puzzle Ball

Well, at least I've never seen one smaller! I finished this one last night:

And here it is in comparison to the other Christmas ornament Puzzle Balls I have listed on my Etsy site:

I don't know if I can make one any smaller, since I still have to leave enough room to turn the pieces inside out and stuff them. I may try to do a size in between these two. It was fun working with this little guy, though, so I'm sure I'll be making more of these. The trick is finding Christmas prints with a small enough pattern!

Any comments...anybody...?

Wow! So crazy-intricate.
I was actually thinking that about printed fabric when I saw the little ball. Once upon a time I worked in a Jo-Anne's, and many of the patterns are repeated form season to season, so it's fun to recognize a pattern when I see one.
Anyway - How much are you planning on selling these little guys for?

I'm still trying to figure out what I want to charge for these! It certainly doesn't take very much fabric, but it takes me about 5 1/2 hours to sew one. Years ago I bought some fabric at Joann's that was printed in a square patchwork pattern of small Christmas prints. I cut the squares apart, stacked each print separately, and worked off of that 1 yard of fabric for a couple of years of making these for family and friends!
