Easter Eggs

Hello all you crafty people!

Easter is coming and in our family

we usually have an Easter Egg Hunt.
In the past we have used those little plastic eggs

and put numbers inside that correspond to a 

prize.  The prize is inside a plastic cup that is covered

with tissue paper.  You have to "punch" through the

tissue paper to get your prize.  It could be anything

from candy to some nice squishy jello.
We have a lot of fun with it.
Sara said she'd love to have some reusable fabric

eggs and sent me a picture of them.
So of course, being me, I had to make some.

They were simple to put together and I used 

some fabric that each of us had and scraps that others

from my Buy Nothing Group gave me.

I made my templates in 3 different sizes.

They can be made in any size you want and 

we wanted them to be fairly small.

Here are some of them in the smallest size.

They open in the back to put a little treat inside,

or in our case, a number.

Here are more, you can see that any design of fabric 

can work.  It just needs to be a light weight fabric.

All my fabrics were fabrics that would be 

appropriate for quilting.

They turned out so cute and we can use them over

and over.
They can be used for any kind of goodies in an 

Easter basket also.

Here is the video I used to learn how to make them.

I made my own pattern, but otherwise followed these instructions

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you'll be back again soon.

Until then,

have an egg-cellent day!
