EASTER EGG GARLAND

EASTER EGG GARLAND

I made this garland as a gift for a friend out of felt and re-purposed textile. I sewed the ribbon to the back of the eggs close to the top so they would not twirl around. This worked out better than the bird garland where I sewed the ribbon in between the layers of felt.
For the central egg I cut out one of the baskets that was on the print.



 The textile I used was strips made of some scraps let over from an old dress my friend P and I picked up at a jumble sale. She used the fabric from the dress so sew a really cool dress for her daughter. When she starts her blog I will include a link to the dress (hint hint :))

I've been making felt Easter eggs decorated with ribbons, strips of fabric and buttons. As the last pic with the frowning Lego figure shows, these eggs can also be used to hide tiny gifts or jelly beans. But as my sons have been watching me make the eggs there is no way they would believe these were dropped off :) by the Easter Bunny...
