Felt Easter egg

Creative people strive to show their imagination when preparing for the holidays. What kind of material are Easter eggs made from: wood, fabric, satin ribbons. The classic color is red, but all colors of the rainbow are acceptable. Why not sew an Easter egg from felt that also stands on a surface? Felt allows you to create crafts of any complexity, since it is a malleable material. Finishing parts can not only be sewn, but also glued. A felt Easter egg is a great way to decorate your interior for the holiday.
Materials:
• Thin felt; one sheet of any color is enough to make an egg. For finishing details in the form of flowers, small pieces of felt of different colors are used.
• Synthetic padding or padding polyester.
• Thin wool or cotton threads.
Progress:
1. First you need to cut out the details of the paper pattern. In this case, the egg consists of three parts, but four can be used.

    The idea is great - everything is simple and beautiful. By the way, I use this egg for a pincushion - it’s very convenient. Thank you!
