I finally decided what to make Ellie for Easter. Although not on my short list, I used this tutorial and spent yesterday afternoon whipping up these cute little friends.
Unfortunately, I think these little guys were supposed to be bigger and I should have sized up the pattern because they were mega tiny to sew. They're made using natural linen and vintage cottons, and the little pouches include a red felt heart, which I might perhaps swap for a mini Easter egg. I hope she likes it because you never can tell these days (although anything small, soft and with a beak and hair is usually a winner).
Have you made anything for your Easter Celebrations? Do show us and post your link at Kirsty's, we'd love a peek!

Awww, they are darling, I love the linen and floral combination. OK, I love the linen and ANYTHING combination.
ReplyDeleteYou're brave sewing for your child. I don't bother, I think the indifference or outright ingratitude would kill me.
Hehe... My daughter and I made one similar last year for her easter hat...
