easter's on its way



i wet-felted the eggshell using an actual egg as the form. then, i sliced the crack in the egg with an exacto knife. i mostly needle-felted the little chick. i made it for our friend, ida jane, who will be turning 4 in a few days. we did the photo shoot out by the surprise lilies in the front yard.

Great job on the shell, I just learned how to needle felt and I think I am still missing something. Very cute!

Isobel saw the pix of the chicks and immediately indicated loudly that she'd love to have one. When you start selling them let me know!!
