Adorable fabric Easter ornament
Make your own Easter eggs from small pieces of fabric. “With a few ornaments, you can easily create a cosy Easter atmosphere,” Anna explains. Follow the guide from the video or in the sisters’ online universe, and create Easter decorations that you can save and reuse year after year.
Select the piece of fabric you wish to use and fold it once. Place the template along the folded border, and attach it with some needles.
Cut out the fabric along the template.
Repeat with another piece of fabric, so you have two pieces.
Cut off a piece of ribbon and fold it in half.
Place one of the fabric pieces with the right-side up.
Now place the ends of the ribbon on the top of the fabric pieces , and then place the other piece of fabric on top of it with the reverse side up. Gather the two pieces of fabric and the ribbon with some needles.
Sew along the border, but let abound 3 cm be open.
Turn the right side out.
Draw a circle on the fabric around 1.5 cm from the border. This will guide you on where to embroider later on.
Now fill the egg with filling. You will roughly need a good handful.
Baste the hole of the egg, so that it is fully closed and to prevent the filling from falling out.
Embroider along the drawn border. Make sure that the filling stays in the middle of the egg, meaning inside the embroidered line.
Finish it off by sewing a couple of felt balls at the top of the egg.
