We made some patterned eggs using small cuttings of silk this year. The egg is wrapped in silk, then in calico and then sits in boiling water with some white vinegar for 40 minutes. Everyone huddled round in the sewing room for the unwrapping which was the best part. We were totally chuffed at how they turned out. Next easter we may go silk-egg crazy :)
These beautifully delicate eggs by Franc Grom are so incredible I couldn't help but include them. He uses an electric drill to carve the details!!
