Supply To Make Carrot Top Egg Cozy
To match the most common color for carrots, I use orange fabric scraps with some simple prints. These fabric scraps are leftover from various projects, like this self-binding napkin, bowl cozy, and the lace-trimmed napkin.
You can also use plain orange fabric if the printed one is not available. For the rick-rack trim, you can use light green or dark green color, whichever you prefer.
If there is no rick-rack trim, then you can use yarn or ribbon.
