Free Pattern Friday : Easter Egg Coaster

I would love for this to become a regular thing!  I have been heavily considering writing and selling patterns.  I have a few hand and wrist pains that show up now and then, so patterns could alleviate my work load and also offer an income.  AND with today's DIY mentality, I think patterns would be quite popular!

However, I don't think it's completely fair to sell simple patterns that you yourself would be able the figure out in a heartbeat if you tried.  So, I want to try to offer some easy patterns to you for free!  You've already gotten my lovely daffy, now you'll have my sweet egg coasters as well!

*I do have to note, I do sell some of these finished products in shop.  So, if you don't have the time or are just here to ogle, pop on over to the shop and purchase what you want!*

This pattern I'm sharing with you today is really easy to whip up.  It's cute, and you can use a variety of colors for that fun Easter egg look!
