Eggstravaganza

The eggs, they are done.

Although I cut pieces for 20, I ended up with 18. My toddler has access to my craft room, and things go missing, frequently! Placed in a sunshiny vintage yellow bowl that my late mom gifted me a few years back, they brighten up any space. Yay for seasonal crafts. M has had much fun "cooking" with these eggs, having egg parties with her stuffed animals, and sorting them by colour. I had intended to make them into some sort of hanging decoration, but I'm loving seeing M play with them so much that I think they should live in a bowl and be available.





I opted to go for a more patchy look than the tutorial at Retro Mama suggested, so I used four fabrics on each egg. I'm digging the colour kaleidoscope.
