Easter Greetings Crazy Quilt Egg from Vintage Vogue

Here's a crazy quilt egg featuring one of my favorite postcards from my personal collection. It's E226 from my Vintage Postcard CD.

Print the egg directly onto computer printer fabric with your inkjet printer, then use it as the foundation for your crazy quilt egg with the center image already in place.

To use this foundation pattern, align the edge of your fabric with the dotted line and sew on the straight line. Flip the fabric over and press towards the dotted line. Stitch two pieces of fabric together (1-1, 1-2 and 2-1, 2-2 and 3-1, 3-2 and 4-1, 4-2). Treat as one piece of fabric for 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Piece the egg, then embellish it with threads, trims, ribbons and beads.

And have a Happy Easter!
