Map paper Easter eggs


Hi Everyone,
Hope you're having a lovely March!

Easter is early this year . . . 


I made a few paper Easter eggs 
from vintage maps 
to hang in a window display at the store.



Very easy to make . . . 
 
                               ~ Cut out an egg shape pattern and cut 
                                  from map or any other paper.
                                  You will need 16-18 per egg. 

                              ~ Stack together and sew a seam down 
                                 the middle on your sewing machine. 

                              ~ Leave string as long as you want at the 
                                 top for hanging.  

                             ~ Tie a knot in the strings at the top and 
                                 bottom of the egg to keep from unraveling. 

                             ~ Fold and crease on seam lines.  

                             ~ Open creases and fan open.

Ta Da . . . 
 

So pretty to hang anywhere!


CELEBRATE EASTER! HE IS RISEN!
