With Easter fast approaching, Burlap comes into it's own. Burlap is the king of Easter. What could be a better fabric to celebrate Spring, Nature and New Life than Burlap. Not to mention the meaning of Lent and going without, the humble Burlap fabric is the perfect companion.

| Easter Egg Burlap Lavender Sachets |
Burlap Lavender Sachets are the perfect gift when you don't want to give chocolate for Easter. These sweet little sachets can be hung in the wardrobe to keep your clothes smelling fresh and bug free all year round - and best of all not a calorie to be seen!
To create your lavender sachets cut two Egg shaped ovals (mines about 12cm high) of Burlap.

| Two Egg Ovals |
On one of the ovals of Burlap stitch rows of ribbon in complimentary shades and patterns.
Place Burlap Eggs right side together and insert a 15cm length of satin ribbon, folded in half, inside the top of the egg to form the hanger. Pin in place. Stitch around the circumference of the egg leaving a 5cm gap on the side.

Roll an A4 sheet of paper into a funnel and insert in gap in Burlap, fill egg with Lavender. Stitch opening closed.

| Fill with Lavender |
Fray the edges back to the stitching line. Your Lavender Easter Egg Sachets are now complete.
So quick, so affordable and so easy! The perfect Easter gift.
