After changing my mind bazillions of times about which one to tackle next, I have finally settled on getting my bunny pattern ready to sell. It should be good to go in about a week - I hope you will like it! It's been so good to see what has been made so far from the doll pattern, and I've got to admit I'm a little bit addicted to writing these up now. There will be more, I'm afraid, oh yes!
These two rabbits, Jack and Zelda, were made in a wave of bunny enthusiasm, and will go in the shop once I stockpile a few more friends to join them.
Also, if you don't read this in a reader, you might notice that I'm in the process of cleaning things up around here. It's been a while since the blog got a bit of love, so there's a new layout and banner. I'm going to add a couple of new things to the sidebars and have started to use categories. I like using categories on other blogs, and have been intending to do it here for ages. As for sorting through 5 (!!) years of blog posts to add the categories - that can be filed under insane.
Yippee Fiona, I was so hoping that you would do the rabbits. I can't wait to get a long eared friend for Poppy. Do you get the too cute overall pattern the Jack is displaying in manly gorgeousness?

I like the new look, and I love the bunnies! I especially like Jack's sweater, it's perfect for nippy autumn weather. :)

Super! My older two daughters have your bunnies and my son has a monkey but the poor neglected 4th child has not Hop Skip Jump goodness. I look forward to buying the pattern so that I whip one up.

Having once taken 45 minutes to sew on a single button(I have never made a second attempt), I am NOT as enthused as others about the pattern, HOWEVER...Jack, my beauty, pack your bags, you're coming to live at my place (for poor Hugo for whom I purchased Polly when I was pregnant and wishing it would be a girl). He's been waiting patiently, until a male friend became available. Let's just hope my internet connection is fast enough to bags him. He is delicous!!! So Euro-chic in his grey tones and chunky turtleneck!
