Materials needed:
Bright colored Felt (Kunin is my brand of choice!  I used Eco-fi Plus for the mat and ClassicFelt for the eggs and grass)
Scissors
Sewing Machine
Thread
felt
First, I cut several pieces of felt that were about 6in x 2in.  Then, I cut little strips to use as the decorations on the eggs.  I made some zigzag, some curvy and some straight.

Once I had them all laid out, I sewed the strips onto the 6in x 2 in pieces using my sewing machine.   Then, I cut out the egg shapes.  Once they were cut, I placed them on my Eco-fi Plus piece of Felt and then sewed them down.
grass and finish
With my green felt, I cut strips to use as grass.  I snipped the sides different lengths and then rounded the edges.  Using the sewing machine, I sewed down the grass.  I sewed a rectangle along the bottom of the grass, so that the fringe would move.  Once my eggs and grass were all sewn on, I did a decorative stitch around the outside of the mat.

This was a really simple project.  Perfect for beginners!   The kids will love it!

Kunin Felt Easter Egg Bunting

Easter is right around the corner!   Why not brighten up your decor with this adorable KuninGroup Felt Easter Egg Bunting!   It was super easy and super fun! Final
I love using my Sizzix Eclips2 to cut out patterns for fabric or felt!   cutting
Once my patterns were cut out, I pinned them to my KuninGroup felt and then went to cutting!  I used pinking shears to give the eggs zigzag edges! cutting out felt
Then, it was time to sew them!  I decided to stuff them while they were still under the sewing foot.   I sewed all but about 2 inches, stuffed them, realigned my edges and finished sewing! sewing
Once they were all sewn, I used Tulip Fabric Paint to add decorations to them!   I think they turned out egg-tastic!  🙂 tulip fabric paint
Using bright pink baker’s twine and a big needle, I threaded the twine through the top part of the egg, making sure to go between the felt and stitches. twine
And then, it was complete!!!  It is absolutely adorable!   Final
