I am hoping someone can help. Several years ago I had a thread crochet leaflet that had lacy ornamnets that you worked in one or two sections then stiffened them around a balloon. They were just lovely and everyone liked receiving them for gifts. My problem is when I moved my daughters didn't realize I wanted the box they decided to put in a garage sale......:(..... I would be grateful if someone remembers this leaflet and could at least tell me who published it. Thanks in advance.\ Andrea

might it be this one by American School of Needlework?:
ASN1088 CHRISTMAS ROMANCE ORNAMENTS ($4.95) by Ismay Bullock. Twelve small 3-dimensional ornaments stiffened on balloons. Detailed directions for using the balloons are included. Lots of nice shapes: star, round, saturn, fish (yes!), pineapple drop, hexagon, etc. All made with bedspread weight (size 10) cotton thread.

that isn't the one but sure sounds interesting. It gives me another place to look so thank you for your time and efforts. I have searched everywhere online but this is one I missed. thanks again, Andrea

What about:

also have one from Annie's Attic called "Snowballs, Snowflakes &Bells". If it sounds familiar and you can't find it elsewhere, let meknow.

those are nice too. Thanks for looking for me. The one I wanted had a puffy heart, a couple of lacy balls and several others that you stiffened over a balloon. They were done in white thread. Then you broke the balloon leaving a hollow, lacy ornment. I really thank you and all others for your ideas. If I ever find it I will certainly tell everyone....;) Andrea
