Felt Easter Toys

I love to work with felt! For these projects I used a wool felt blend from Wool Felt Central on Prairie Point Junction.

I found the pattern for these cute bunny finger puppets on The Purl Bee. The pattern template is available as a free download.

This reversible toy is an egg on one side...

And a chick on the other! It's an Abby Glassenberg Design pattern, available here.

I made the felt eggs in the basket a few years ago, using this pattern from Lola Nova.

Happy Easter!

Spring Flower Cookies

I've been having fun decorating little cookies, like these mini chocolate flowers. White with colored centers here...

And all the colors in different combinations.

All together they make a pretty and yummy plate of cookies perfect for spring and Easter.

They coordinate with my Easter Eggs & Easter Bunnies!

Easter Bunny Cookies

I love this bunny shape and used it last year on these chocolate Easter cookies. This year I wanted to add a little something more and am very happy with the ribbons. I used the same colors I used on my Easter egg cookies.

I think this is the first time I've used this cookie cutter, even though I've had it for years. I think my favorite part is the ears. The pink one above has an extra back leg detail that I thought was distracting, so I made the rest simpler.

Here is the pink bunny matching her friends. Now at the head of the line! 

Hop on over to The Ginger Cookie to see these and more Easter Bunny cookies!

Easter Egg Cookies

I made a few sugar cookie eggs for Easter. I love this color palette!

I also made chocolate egg cookies. 

One of my favorite things about decorating cookies is creating variations as I decorate.

The cookie eggs have been decorated, now it's time to decorate the real eggs!

Visit me over at The Ginger Cookie to see my recent Easter cookies together in one post, and some Easter egg cookies from the archives, circa 2008.

Happy Easter

I made a chick and three eggs out of felt for Gracie's Easter basket. For the eggs I used a pattern from Lola Nova. I had planned to embroider decorations on them but ran out of time. Maybe next year! The Easter grass is strips of tissue paper cut on the paper cutter.

The chick is from this Vogue pattern from the 70s. I made some chicks and the gingham and rickrack eggs for my family way back then.

I baked hot cross buns for our Easter brunch.

I used this recipe from one of my favorite cooking sites, Simply Recipes. They came out really well!
