Easter Egg Bag


This year we are skipping the plastic Easter eggs, and paper confetti, and making these super quick, and easy crochet eggs! We are filling them with 'Yarn Confetti', or jelly beans, to hide and gift to friends and family.

These cute and fun crochet Easter EGG BAGS work up so quick, that you can make them and fill an Easter basket in no time.  Make eggs to hang, display, or hide these joyful little eggs filled with treats, like jelly beans or tiny toys like marbles, and  make delightful little Easter treats.

Pick your favorite colors, work up some quick egg bases, then have fun decorating your many eggs. Make with or without lines and dots, or add fun bunny and chick faces.

Skip the sweat treats and be like Pooh, stuffed with fluff! We use 'yarn confetti' 🎉 for stuffing.

While I have been using yarn for stuffing for many years, I never thought to give it a name. The adorable name Yarn Confetti comes from this crafty YouTuber Nicole, of Off the Hook Crochet aka Yarn glitter.

Egg bags are affectionately dubbed 'Easter Beggs'

Thank you for stopping by.

Best wishes, happy crocheting, and Happy Easter! 🐰 🐣

More Crochet for Mom

 Crochet Rose Scrubby and Washcloth


This Mother's Day I wanted to give flowers that would not die, plus something useful, so, I made a simple rose with leaves, and loop to hang, to create a decoration or scrubby. Then I coupled the rose with a washcloth from the Americana Washcloth Pattern, but made in yellow, to create this fun kitchen/bath set. 

Set makes a nice gift, coupled with some special soap or face cream. Great for Mom, teachers or friends.

October Crochet Memories

This October has been so busy, sadly there has been little time for crochet. But it is very heart warming to visit relatives and see crochet that you have gifted in use. And since she has saved things through the years, it is fun to see the difference in style and skill.  Below are Sunflower Doilies gifted to my MIL. The one with black is from 2017, and the front 2 are 2021.  


It is always nice to know that your love and efforts are appreciated and loved back. <3

These patterns are not currently available through Doily Designs, but you can find Doily Designs Sunflower Applique Pattern on sale now in new Payhip shop. Or find on Etsy, or Ravelry.

Another pic of the sunflower doilies.  The difference makes me giggle :)
