Hatching Felt Chicks

Watch these adorable chicks burst to life! Create your own hatching chicks for Easter or simply as an activity to practise your sewing skills. They are great fun to make and play with afterwards!
  • Step 1Using the template provided, cut out two chick shapes from felt. Adult supervision is recommended when using scissors.
  • Step 2Sew the two chick shapes together using a back stitch.
  • Step 3Cut out a small triangle shape from orange felt to create a beak. Place two wiggle eyes on your chick's face. Attach the beak and eyes with glue. Allow to dry.
  • Step 4Use the egg template to cut out two felt pieces for each half of the egg shape.
  • Step 5Use a back stitch to sew the two smaller egg pieces around the bottom of the chick.
  • Step 6Sew some sequins on one of the large egg pieces.
  • Step 7Use a back stitch to sew the two large egg pieces together. Only sew around the rounded edge of the egg shapes to allow room for the chick to fit back inside the egg!
  • Step 8Once your hatching chick is all sewn together, push the chick up inside the large egg half to keep him safe!
  • Try making some more hatching felt chicks using different colours of felt.
