Sew Splash Balls from Bathing Suits
"Sew splash balls with old bathing suits and a free pattern for upcycled summer fun at the pool, beach or just in your backyard! Drop them in the water and throw them at each other for a cool splash! Perfect for summer vacation play! Use the free template to cut the pieces of the ball from an old swimsuit. Sew the pieces together, stuff the ball and sew the opening shut with a ladder stitch (or other hand stitch that you prefer). Then you’re ready to play and get wet!"
