Hand-sewn egg hangers are quick and easy to make, and with their soft colors, they immediately bring a warm, friendly Easter mood to the table, to branches, or to gifts.
When spring is noticeably here, the sun shines through the window, and family or friends gather at the table for Easter, small handmade details are a must. Especially during this time, self-sewn egg hangers made of Felty embroidery felt bring a light, friendly atmosphere into your home with little effort.
For this project, you don't need extensive preparation and only these materials:
- Felty embroidery felt: e.g. the 12-piece set in spring colors
- Embroidery needles
- Rustic Filaine yarn for hand embroidery
- Optional: Aqua Trick Marker for drawing your own designs
- Stuffing/filler cotton
- A pair of scissors
Sewing Easter decorations without a pattern – here's how:
First, cut two identical egg shapes from Felty embroidery felt. Felty is particularly nice for such hangers because the felt doesn't fray and is easy to work with. A set like the Felty 12-piece set is especially practical because you can choose from many fresh colors and design several different hangers.
Sewing Easter hangers step-by-step
In the next step, the small eggs get their character. They are embroidered with Filaine yarn and a hand embroidery needle. The slightly thicker yarn creates a soft, rustic design. You can simply improvise – or draw your desired motif beforehand with an Aqua Trick Marker. This way, you can calmly prepare your ideas and remove the markings later with a little water.
Once the front sides are designed, place both felt pieces wrong sides together and sew them – either by hand or quickly with a sewing machine. The important thing is to leave a small opening. Through this opening, you fill in some stuffing so that the hangers become nicely soft and slightly three-dimensional. Afterwards, the opening is closed, and if you wish, you can also sew in a ribbon for hanging. This is how two simple felt shapes become a finished Easter hanger.
