bunny goody bags

This year I made some sweet little bunny bags for treats:

and they turned up super cute!

The pattern is  floppy ears bunny bag. I made them out of different colored linen, with different faces:

Miss C. chose the natural linen, and Brick Master the blue one. The white linen bunny is for my niece Toddler E.

They are perfect with the couple chocolates I was able to find.

and even better with my little bunny bunting.

a little bunny bunting

Because reality is a little too much, I keep sewing bunny theme things, and this little bunting was the perfect distraction.

It started about 6 years ago when I embroidered these little bunnies:

And then, they waited for me to remember to do something with them... well this year was the year:
I cut a simple bunting shape, and sewed it to another fabric, right side together,

and flipped them right side out:

they looked good, but 3 was not quite enough... I had no desire to embroider more bunny, so I looked in my stash for the perfect bunny fabric: some Peter Rabbit fabric left from a previous project
I was able to cut out a few different scenes from the fabric, making 4 more.

With all 7 of them, I debated how best to display them and to which support to stitch them...

In the end I chose a sturdy white "ribbon" without adding any other ribbon or color.

I added a faux eucalyptus garland (IKEA from Christmas), it was what the little bunting needed:

Now the area above the buffet in the living room is ready for spring, with lots of bunnies!

I will share more about these bunnies next time...

Happy sewing!

bunny love pillow

Sewing is usual a way for me to destress,

but right now I do not seem to have enough bandwidth

to deal with anything complicated,

so I am sewing bunnies!

Like this cute bunny love pillow:

The pattern is from Bustle and Sew magazine (issue 85, February 2018)

It is quite simple and doesn't need a pattern,

just 9 little felt bunnies and a little heart!

The background is some blue linen acquired many years ago.

Because the fabric is so soft 

I fused it to some iron fleece,

it made stable enough to machine stitched around all the bunnies.

Luckily I have my "sewing buddy" with me

to relax....

Happy sewing!
