Easter Make

As it is Easter, I have decided to make myself a little Easter Egg broach! Its super easy and you can do it for any occasion really!

Take some felt, needle, silk threads (or any threads), stuffing and decorations (optional).



Draw an outline of the shape that you want to make, mine is an egg as it is Easter, onto a piece of paper, this is your template. Then using your template cut out two pieces of felt, a front and a back.


Then embellish the front with anything you fancy really, I just went for a small bit of sparkle. Then put the front and the back together and sew together using a blanket stitch in a clashing colour.


Obviously when you are almost all the way around, stuff your piece with some stuffing. I just used the stuffing out of an old cushion that I don't use anymore (upcycling is good!).

Then just sew or glue on a brooch fixing to the back and you are ready to go. An easy and quick little make! x


Happy Easter, hope your many eggs are treating you well :) x
