We are going on an egg hunt

So what do we need? Mummy made baskets of course!


 

They were mostly made with fabric scraps and pieces of felt out of my felt box. I love a project that comes together without having to buy anything. 
I just sat at my machine on Saturday afternoon and pieced some fabric together, matched up some felt etc and in just over an hour I had 3 baskets. No pattern, just winging it. 

I was pleased as punch.


And so where the kids!

Did you have an Easter egg hunt at your place?

I am linking up with Jess for IBOT. And also here and here

    You're so clever Amy! We had an egg hunt in the farm. Luckily the Easter Bunny didn't hide any in the long wet grass ;)

    Those bags are gorgeous. I wish I was clever and patient enough to create something like that. Rachel x

    You are so clever! We had an egg hunt...with large noodle-box baskets I got from Big W ($1.98 for 2)!! Your baskets look fantastic! (Your blog through me for a minute with the change of layout! Looks good.)

      haha, sorry about that Debbie. Moving the sidebar really does make a big difference. I am not sure if I like it better like this though, I will leave for a few days and see if it grows on me :)
