This is one that my mother had made and put in my family's book. I loved it when I was young and I just know my kids are going to love it, that is when their old enough to play with it.
- Trace the pattern on a paper, don't forget to cut out or hole punch the holes.
- Cut out of fabric. I went to the Home Decor fabric section of JoAnn to get some brown fabric that looked like real football hide. I waited till it was 50% off. I think the fabric was originally $35 a yard but with the discount and then the fact that I could get the least amount that I could get which was 5". I only paid $2.43 for the 5" strip that I have been able to share with my friends that I am making it with and we will even be splitting that price.
- Put eyelets in the holes.
- Sew the football on the page.
- Lace the football up with a shoe lace.
- Trace the words on. You don't have to use the words that I did, but if you want it's, "Can you tie the football to play catch with Dad?" I'm trying to do a page for each holiday and this is my Father's day page. Enjoy!
