You Will Need (4 things)

  • Felt in two contrasting colours
  • Embroidery Thread in two contrasting colours
  • Scissors
  • A Needle

Steps (5 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Cut out two U-shaped pieces of felt, approx 10cm tall by 9cm wide (depending on how big you like your boiled eggs!)

  2. 2

    Using the contrasting felt, cut out two shapes for the eyes - have a look at Mexican wrestlers online for ideas - and one for the mouth. Sew them onto one of your u-shapes and with contrasting thread add a couple of stitches to add detail to the eyes and mouth as pictured.

  3. 3

    Place the two u-shapes together and blanket stitch around the curved edge in contrasting thread.

  4. 4

    Boil your egg and pop your wrestler on to keep it warm while you're sorting out the soldiers!

  5. 5

    Get creative! We often enjoy a whole troupe of Mexican wrestlers at breakfast, and sometimes they wrestle hens. Really.
