Stuffed Chenille and Vintage Fabric Bunnies



















Here's my first attempt at making stuffed bunnies...one in vintage pink chenille with button eyes and one in blue and pink vintage fabric. I just love this fabric! I ended up taking off the button eyes and hand embroidered on the eyes instead. I worried about the choking hazard of button eyes if given to a youngster. Glad I did as I sold it today to someone who is giving it as a gift to a 2 year old! Next I'm making vintage chenille teddy bears... So fun!
