What materials are needed for the pincushion cloth eggs?
The suitable Fabric cut, enough Web tape, the sheep and buttons to apply are offered in a finished Creative set . From these materials, together with filling cotton wool, the sewing machine and scissors, the great decorative eggs are created.

Here's how it's done
First of all, the motif template ( click on Download motif template) is printed out on the PC and the egg shape is transferred to the fabric. For a fabric egg you need two cuts in complete egg shape and another Fabric cut with half an egg. When cutting the fabric, the seam allowance should be taken into account. The motif template is prepared for a fabric egg of 16.5 cm height. If desired, the fabric can also be cut to a slightly smaller egg shape. Chain off all Fabric cuts .
In the first sewing step the fabric edge "half egg" is sewn around, the Web tape is now applied as a decorative border, then the sheep and the buttons should be sewn onto the egg half.
Now the applied egg bag is stapled and sewn onto the Fabric cut of a full decoration-Ice .
The next step is to fold and staple both eggs-Fabric cuts together so that the left side of the fabric is on the outside. Then simply sew them together, leaving an opening. The sewn egg can now be pulled to the right. Filling cotton wool is stuffed into the egg through the opening until it has a nice firm shape. Finally the opening is sewn together at only - and the new pincushion is ready.
