For Easter I want to offer you a creative sewing project really easy to make, but very nice to decorate our home!!
I chose white, burgundy and green as the main colors, but you can find your favorite color combination and give full scope to creativity!
The materials are the cotton for the outside and thin felt or felt for the inside. This way the bell will have the right rigidity to stay in shape.
Its finished dimensions are approximately 18x18x18cm.
Download the paper pattern that you find below, in the list of materials, and start sewing your Easter bell!!
Materials and Tools
- red, white and green felt for the bell sections, leaves and flowers
- 1 rattle
- hot glue
- sewing machine with basic stitches
- trimmings 30 cm
Sew the felt bell
Print the paper pattern shapes. Seam allowance is included.
Cut 5 sections from the cotton fabric and 5 sections from the felt.
Place, right sides together, one shape onto the other and sew on one side only.
Sew all the shapes together and close the circle, sewing the first one to the last.
In this way you obtain the cotton bell and the felt one.
Place the felt bell and the fabric bell, one inside the other, right sides together. Sew the base to join the two parts.
Cut the ends and turn right side out.
Prepare the bell hook
Take the smaller strip of green felt, double it and sew it on the long side.
Cut the felt close to the seam.
Insert the rattle and close it into a ring. Glue the ends.
With a thick thread, hand sew the edge of the bell opening in running stitch and leave the ends of the thread long. Insert the hook and then close with a knot, tightening the thread.
Prepare the flower sprigs
Take the 3.5 cm strips of green felt, double them and sew along the long line.
Then cut close to the seam.
Glue the shape of the open flower to each end and roll up to form the little rose, then secure it with a drop of hot glue.
Also glue 2 leaves per sprig.
Prepare 2 sprigs with flowers in this way.
Finish the bell
To finish the bell, glue the branches around the hook and use the trimmings to embellish everything with a bow or knot.
