I am looking for a pattern and instructions to make a cloth ball called
an appalachain folk ball. It looks like a round honeycomb. The ball's
pattern pieces are a pie wedge and a football.
Thanks

I have/had that pattern and made several of the balls a 8-10 years ago.
There are three sizes, I believe. Unfortunately the pattern isn't
where it should be, but there are a couple of places I can look tomorrow
when my prowling around won't wake up DH.
I remember they are rather time-consuming to make.

Looks right to me. I'm glad you found it, because my pattern didn't
turn up this morning. (I did find something else I've been searching
for, however, and a big trash bag of 'stuff' to get rid of, so the time
was well spent!)

Actually, now that I clicked the link to the pattern page, this isn't
exactly the same as the pattern I had, because there is no wedge shaped
piece. In the photo, it looks like the same ball as mine, though:

I have a vague recollection of lending my pattern to someone. :(
