Little Chick Egg Topper

Little_Chick_Egg_Topper
My kids LOVE soft-boiled eggs. It’s a regular breakfast and snack at our house, but if the kids aren’t ready as soon as the eggs are, the yolks can become cold and not as appetizing. To help slow the heat loss I’ve made a few cute little egg toppers to keep the yolks toasty warm! These little chick versions always bring a smile to both my face and those of my kids when they come to the table to fine the sweet chickies waiting for them!

Things you’ll need
White felt
Yellow felt (scraps)
Yellow, black and red embroidery thread
Embroidery needle
Pinking shears
Scissors

Things to do:
1. Cut two half circles about twice the size of an egg. Trim around the rounded side with pinking shears to make feathers”.
2. Thread the needle with yellow thread and stitch with a running stitch around the pinked edge.

3. Cut a tiny triangle from the yellow felt and sew in place with the yellow thread.
