„Unique Hens“ – Egg Cosy
The hull of the hens is made with the Doppelmasche. This stitch is wonderful for embroidery.
You can embroider your hens as shown or let your imagination run wild - so each hen becomes unique. Of course, you can also vary the colors as you like.

!! Attention!! The offer refers only to the pattern for the hens alone - the pattern for the baskets / egg cups / tealight holders, on which the hens partly sit (see last pictures) can be found here:

I also offer both patterns together as a economy set - you can find this under the following link:
