Spray the backside of the printed dieline for the front of the egg holder with a small amount of temporary adhesive.

Smooth it onto a piece of felt.

Repeat this process for the back dielines and fabric.

Madeira E-Zee Tear 1.5 oz. or Floriani Tearaway Medium are good choices.

Those brands are more fibrous, less paper-like, and will tear more cleanly.

Attach the hoop to the machine and load the full embroidery design (not the dieline files).

Use a size 11 or 75/11 sharp sewing needle, rather than an embroidery needle. A sharp sewing needle has a smaller, finer point than an embroidery needle, so that will make smaller perforations in the stabilizer. Embroider the design.

The first thing to embroider will be a dieline or outline. This marks the area on the stabilizer for the front fabric piece.

Spray the back of the front fabric piece with a small amount of temporary adhesive.

Place the fabric right inside the sewn outline.

Attach the hoop back onto the machine and continue with the design.

A tack down will sew next. This holds the front fabric in place for the remainder of the design.

Then all of the inside elements will be embroidered.

When you get to this section, stop the machine and remove the hoop from the machine but do not unhoop the stabilizer.

Turn the hoop over.

To make a hanger, cut a 7" length of ribbon or yarn and fold it into a loop before taping it to the backside of the top back fabric piece.

Spray the backside of the bottom back fabric piece with adhesive, and place it inside the shape on the backside of the embroidery.

Next, spray and place the top half of the back piece over the bottom piece.

Make sure the top back piece is on top of the bottom back piece. This will make the back opening easier to use when putting candy into the egg.

Tape the ribbon hanger to the side of the hoop, so that it will not be sewn over in the remaining steps.

Since both sides of the egg with be seen, wind a bobbin with the same thread used in the needle.

A tack down stitch will sew around the outer edge of the camper followed by the finished satin edge.

This binds all the layers together.

Once the embroidery is finished, remove the hoop from the machine. Unhoop the stabilizer, and carefully tear it away.

Fill the Easter egg with candy and treats! Give as a adorable sweet gift, or use to create a fun crafty egg hunt for the kids.
