How to Make a Soft Stuffed Bowling Game

Making your Bowling Pins

1). Lay your Mason jar lid on a flat surface, with underside of your lid facing up. Glue a line of hot glue around the edge of your lid.
2). Wrap the edge of your white felt lengthwise around the lid to create a cylinder-like effect with the lid as your base. Cut off any excess material to connect your ends.
3). Sew your felt ends together with a needle and thread, leaving the top un-sewn. Fill your cylinder tightly with fiberfill, leaving approximately 3 inches on top unstuffed. Sheet or cluster-type fiberfill will work well in this step.
4). Tie off with strip of red ribbon. Continue to fill with fiberfill and sew closed. Repeat Steps 1 through 3 until you have made 10 individual bowling pins.

1). Wrap a Styrofoam ball with several sheets on fiberfill. The cluster type of fill will not work in this step, as it will cause your ball to look lumpy. It is best to use flat sheets of fiberfill. Attach your fiberfill sheets with hot glue and straight pins.
2). Wrap your black felt around your Styrofoam ball and attach with en even coating of hot glue. Let dry and cut off any excess.
3). Cut three 1-inch circles out of your black felt. Position on your ball to look like finger holes on a regular bowling ball. Hot glue into place.
