little rabbit

Made this little chap from a scrap of vintage look fabric, £3/metre in Forton Fabrics, Gosport, pale felt, old bits of embroidery thread and buttons off an old shirt.
Not his best angle, been slightly squashed and made him slightly angular.
Really easy to make,
1. Roughly draw a pattern, head, ears, body, arms and legs too if you like a challenge! Then add half an inch round the edge for seam allowance.
2. Cut out two.
3. Sew your features to one of the bunny shapes.
4. Place the 2 shapes together 'face to face', sew round the edge, leaving at least an inch gap.
5. Before turning inside out make little snips from the edge of the fabric to the seam ( but not through it) .
5. Turn inside out, stuff (you may need a poking implement for the extremities) and sew the hole shut.
