More Bunny

March 6, 2012

I have been having fun with this bunny.  I made 2 more over the weekend and after some seam ripping and adjusting I think I finally have my final, perfected bunny for the pattern!  I need to get it done soon since Easter is only 5 weeks away!  Although I also picture these sweeties in a baby room, don't you?  That take some pressure off!

UPDATE!  Pattern available now.

3 bunnies right

The ears are what are different on each one.  Turns out that it is challenging to get good bunny ears!  I actaully looked at lots of pictures of real bunnies to get a good idea of proportion, placement and shape.  Thank you for your suggestions about the button eye- again it brings in that folkiness I like but is still modern enough to make it look fresh.

This bunny below is the one the pattern will be based on.  The ears are wider and placed a little further back on the head than the original bunny I shared in this post.    

Yellow bunny

I bought enough if the lovely Heather Ross fabric from Amy to make another bunny AND make another 3 layer clutch (which is waiting on a magnetic snap!)  The yellow and pink together are so pretty!  I can't wait to finish the clutch and show that off too!  Thanks to Amy for the fabric suggestion.

2 turquoise bunnies

Cal agreed to hold the bunny for pictures but only if he could keep his dragon costume on.  We dsicussed that dragons and bunnies are probably friends and so it would make sense to include this picture here.  I always see bunnies and dragons hanging out around town, don't you?

Dino & bunny
Alrighty- coming soon!  The bunny sewing pattern.  I am hoping for early next week.  Better get going!

Yellow Scrap Fabric Made into Hot pads!

 Awhile ago I created some yellow scrap fabric yardage and showed you all my method over on THIS youtube video.  At the time I wasn't sure what to do with that piece.  Maybe another pillow?  Make it larger to make a baby quilt?  I finally decided on a new set of hot...
