Felt Egg

Just a quick post as a follow up to the egg pattern. I have to thank Feltorama for reminding me that I had wanted to test out my pattern on felt. I am excited to say it worked great! In the photo you can see that I'm not done yet. I think I might add some embroidery decoration.



A couple of tips using the egg pattern with felt:

Because felt is thicker, I definitely recommend clipping your curves (making sure not to clip though your stitches).

Also, leave as big an opening as you can, making it easier to turn right side out.

I will show you more when I finish.

i love the picture!
your package is going out tomorrow, and i'm pretty sure you get to pick another print b/c you were pretty close on my mystery pic- but i'm going to let people keep guessing b/c i am evil.

The felt egg is lovely! I can't wait to try and make one this weekend. I think I'll trim mine with some sweet new spring felt ribbon I picked up recently :)

Thanks again for the pattern I finished my first one yesterday and I'm ready to start the Easter basket production line - 2 daughters, one niece will six each be enough?

I just posted a picture of my prototype on flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/onegirlsopinion/3395302448/
and posted on my blog - thanks again!

Hello! Listen, I tried to access to your entries through the links at the right side of the screen but I was not able, instead, I was sent to a blank page... does any one know what kind of trouble is that and how to solve it?
