I decided to be slightly different again in that my project involves a mini quilt but also a stuffed toy. A year or maybe two years ago I made Luna Lapin for my daughter. The pattern includes her clothes and the story of the rabbit. Luna loves sewing! Here is Luna showing off her dress and coat.
I needed to make another rabbit for the grand daughter of a friend. They aren't difficult to make but they are a little fiddly. The little girl wanted a white rabbit so I got white felt and cut the pattern. The instructions are well written and easy to follow. This version of Luna has deep pink fabric for the lining of her ears and she will have blue eyes. Buttons are used as eyes but unfortunately I don't have any blue buttons of the right size. I also need to embroider her nose.
Meanwhile I made a small rabbit sized quilt that would keep her warm on a cold night.
The little rabbit is very pleased with her quilt.
This new rabbit is called Rose and so some of the squares in her quilt have roses on them.
Meanwhile the original Luna Lapin that I made wanted to help with sewing the quilt. She was excellent with helping with the sewing machine. She also wanted to help sew on the binding. She needed to wear her glasses for that job.
I hope you liked my project. Now you need to visit the other blogs showing their projects today. Here is the full schedule.
