DIY Egg Hunt Baskets

Easter is coming with lots of spring flowers and warmer weather
Do you think about Egg hunt parties , Easter bunnies and Easter Baskets.
For a long time i wanted to create some Egg hunt baskets to enjoy making with the kids and friends , but i was straggling to create something simple and effective and then ,finally the inspiration came.


 I have made this sleepy dick first and developed the pattern,

.




they are very colorful and cheerful together perfect for E
aster EGG HUNT . They are small in size 15 cm x 18 cm but a lot of chocolate eggs can be collected in

It is very easy to make these two.

Mrs HEN Easter Crafts -DIY table top decoration

Easter is coming
I have created this pattern inspired by the idea of making lovely Easter table decoration in natural colours and straw and lost of Eggs
listed in My ETSY shop :
https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/183133994/easter-crafts-pdf-sewing-pattern-mrs-hen?ref=af_shop_favitem


For Mrs Hen i have selected Off white (Calico)Cotton and Scandinavian style checked cotton to create a Rustic / Nordic style


but any combination of 3 colours of your own choice would suits lovely to Mrs HEN so get creative make a Shabby chic style Hen with some faded flowery motifs or just use those lovely fabrics treasured for months, hidden somewhere in the craft drawers .

This is my White Hen but i would love to make it in more colourful version
Thank you !!!!!
