Easter bouquet

Soon we will celebrate the most important Christian holiday - Easter. Many will bake Easter cakes, prepare Easter cottage cheese, paint Easter eggs, and try to bring the apartment into perfect order and somehow decorate it. There are many ways to decorate your home for the holiday - lay out a festive tablecloth, place delicate spring flowers in vases, place beautiful ceramic figurines of hens and chicks. You can also make an elegant Easter bouquet - twigs decorated with decorative Easter eggs.



For work you will need: pattern paper, a simple pencil, fleece in yellow and orange, scissors, a felt-tip pen, felt in green and yellow, self-adhesive felt in red and blue, bright ribbons, large multi-colored beads, a needle, thread, padding polyester, twigs from cherry tree.

Progress.
1. Using a simple pencil, draw an Easter egg pattern on paper and cut it out.



2. Place the pattern on the wrong side of the fleece and trace it with a felt-tip pen. For one Easter egg, you need to cut out two pieces from orange fleece, leaving half a centimeter for allowance.To make seven decorative Easter eggs, you will need to cut eight pieces from orange fleece and six pieces from yellow fleece.



3. Sew the parts in pairs, leaving a small hole. This is best done on a sewing machine, but you can sew it by hand. The result will be seven blanks for decorative Easter eggs.



4. Turn each piece out through the unstitched holes.



5. Through the same holes, tightly fill each piece with padding polyester.



6. Sew the holes manually with a hidden seam.



7. Now these blanks need to be decorated. You can cut out a small chicken from yellow felt and sew it on by hand using small stitches. Cut out a beak from self-adhesive red felt, and eyes from blue felt. Glue on the chicken's eyes and beak. Cut a small bow from green felt and sew it onto the chicken.



8. You can decorate it in another way. Take a bright ribbon, wrap the workpiece crosswise and secure it with threads. Cut a flower out of felt, sew it where the ribbon crosses, and sew a large bead on top.



9. Decorate several blanks with chickens, and several with ribbons, flowers and beads.



10. Take a ribbon and tie a bow on it, leaving a loop for hanging the Easter egg on a branch.



11. To prevent the edges of the ribbons from unraveling, process them. To do this, light a match and quickly draw the fire along the cuts. Make seven such ribbons in total - one ribbon for each Easter egg. Sew ribbons with bows and loops to each Easter egg.



12. Place cherry branches in a vase and hang decorative Easter eggs on them. The Easter bouquet is ready.
This bright, elegant bouquet can be placed on a table, shelf or windowsill, and it will create a festive mood in your home.
