Happy Spring Egg Ornament


Pattern: Happy Easter by Brooke's Books
Notions: brown felt, pink ribbon, and white lace
Start/Finish: 3/10-17/2018

I wanted to make a 'happy spring' gift for Constance and was browsing Etsy to see what I could find. As luck would have it, Brooke's Books had released several Easter egg patterns earlier this year.

The original wording is 'Happy Easter', but I changed it to 'Happy Spring.' I also changed some of the DMC colors because I didn't have all of the colors that were required and didn't have the Mill Hill beads either.

I backed it with brown felt which I had decorated with pink polka ribbon and lace trim. I took some pale pink ribbon and put a loop on top of the egg so it could be hung as an ornament.

I think my gift has arrived safely in Canada, but we'll see. It either ended up at her husband's parents' house or at their old house address. O-o"

Until next time ^____^
