ITH chicken egg cozy

$2.00

Chicken Egg Cozy is designed to fit around a real or plastic egg.

You can make many other birds with this ITH pattern.  See below for ideas…

 

 

  • Quick and easy project!  Stitches up fast, and assembly is a breeze.
  • The pattern for 5×7 hoop is double sided – the eye & wing stitch on both sides of the chicken.  The 4×4 hoop size is only stitched on one side, due to limitations of the hoop size, and stitches up faster.
  • Try mixing up this pattern with different colors and beaks to make different bird species!  White makes a chicken, yellow makes a chick.  Try a bluebird.  Or black fabric with white thread could make a crow or raven.
  • Designed for stretch fabrics.  (Could also be made from non-stretch fabrics but it may not fit over an egg without the stretchiness in your fabric)
  • Instructions include patterns to cut beak, comb, and wattles from felt.  These get stitched into the seams by using the placement guides in the stitch file.
