Sewing Ideas for the Bunny Stuffed Toy pattern:
1. Make the bunny out of one of your child’s favorite shirts that have become a little too worn to continue wearing.
2. Use a cuddle-type fabric such as fleece, faux fur, or Minky so your bunny will be soft and plush.
3. Sew up a bunny before Easter and use him to decorate your home in anticipation of the holiday. (Perhaps he can even watch over the youngest members of your household to make sure they are deserving of a visit from the Easter Bunny?)
4. Tuck the bunny into your child’s Easter basket or hide it in your house and leave clues for your kiddo to find him.
5. Make the bunny brown so he can be a chocolate bunny, or sew him in pastel colors to match the marshmallow bunnies your child loves to eat!
6. Make your bunny out of velveteen and pair it with a copy of The Velveteen Rabbit for a gift that leaves a lasting impression.
