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

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.

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

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

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