Another interesting way to use Easter embroidery is to create custom-made Easter baskets for your egg hunts. The options here are truly endless. Use designs that involve the Easter bunny, colored eggs, baby chicks and ducks, spring flowers, and more. If you’re feeling really ambitious, you could stitch out the name of whoever plans on using the basket. It’s such a nice way to make your egg hunt memorable!

Important Easter Symbols and Traditions to Inspire Your Easter Embroidery Projects

Easter has evolved and changed over time, and so have the symbols and traditions that represent it. It is at its core a Christian holiday that celebrates the resurrection of Jesus. Today, it has morphed into both a religious and secular celebration. There’s room for everyone! Let’s take a closer look at some of the most important symbols that you can use as inspiration for your embroidery projects.

Easter Bunny

The Easter Bunny is the epitome of Easter, especially for children. It’s unclear just when rabbits became symbols for Easter, but bunnies do symbolize new life, which fits hand-in-hand with the more religious meanings behind the holiday.

There are also experts that say the Easter Bunny first showed up in the US with the arrival of German immigrants. In German tradition, tales talk about a large hare that lays colored eggs! It doesn’t make much sense, but hey, that’s what legends are about, right?

Easter Eggs

Eggs also represent new life and are also associated with other springtime holidays. The tradition of decorating eggs can be traced all the way back to the 13th century. History books tell us that back in the day, when Christians were abstaining for Lent (the period leading up to Easter), eggs were a high commodity. To make waiting to eat them more bearable, people would paint eggs and then eat them in celebration on Easter Sunday.
