As I was prepping for the first craft show, I knew I needed to make some bunny loveys. I wasn’t thrilled with the first iteration, mostly because of the ear color issue, so I’d been looking for a new pattern. I found one that looked really good on paper and I thought it would work for me. Well, common sense would suggest that I should make a complete bunny to be sure I was happy with it before spending a lot of time making parts, right? Oh, no, not me. I’d made several blankets – 19, I think – but I knew I didn’t have time to make that many bunnies, so I made enough ears for 10 and arms for 7 (the arms take longer and I was running out of time).
Then I sat down to make the first head.
I hated it.
I hated the shape, the size, the time involved, the whole thing.
So I modified the pattern I’d used before and went with that. It’s working for me. Maybe not as much as I might like, but they’re pretty darn cute.
