Bathing Belle

Over the last couple of days I have been working madly on this bathing bunny.  She is a mixture of patterns - mainly the Mother Bunny pattern by Wendy from Dollytime, with the feet, rubber ring and headband (with some alterations) of Bunty Bunny from Debbie Birkin.

I think I should have put a bit more stuffing in her, as she is a bit of a skinny bunny!

Next time I will make the rubber ring differently as it was very hard to stuff well.

I used the headband idea, but made the band itself from an i-cord and crocheted a tiny flower instead of a bow.

Now to make a start on Marigold!

I am loving your bunnies! This one is brilliant, she is probably skinny because she has lost weight since she started learning to swim!

I think this one may be my favourite bunny so far........perhaps she's skinny from all that swimming, lol.

Oh my gosh Penny - the animal society might have to come in and close you down for being a 'bunny factory', lol.

This one is my favourite so far. Im liking the skinnier look, and the rubber floaty ring just sets it off.

cheers
