Easter Egg Tree

Gee I'm sorry did you think I meant a chocolate egg tree , oops ! No it's a fabric egg tree and very easy too . These little treasures can also be used for gift tags .
All you need to do is raid your scraps and cut out a heap of egg shapes . Either fuse or stitch them together and hang off a branch in a pretty bottle by ribbon that has been stitched on .The fabric doesn't has to match both sides and as an extra touch stitch on a pretty button .
Now as a reward for using up more scraps treat yourself to a chocolate egg .

This is a great idea, but since I am a scrapper, not a sewer, I think I will use paper. I've been trying to figure out a way to display paper eggs.

Hi Clare! I just wanted to let you know that I featured your idea on my blog "She's Crafty!" today. Head over to check it out! I would also LOVE it if you would copy and paste my button into your sidebar:)
Thanks a lot!
