An Easter Bunny, Carrots and Owly Powly Quilt

Well I have been busy today.... I really wanted to make some the carrots from Clare's blog. I downloaded the tutorial today and had a go and making them. Click HERE for the tutorial for the carrots.





My little bunny, he is made from vintage chenille. He is a design I draw up months and months ago but never finished sewing him up.. well today I decided to finish him. He has a base so he is free standing.... So here he is in a basket with the carrots. I made 3 different sizes of these and decorated them with ribbon and some off cuts of fabric. I cute little deocoration to put the kids eggs into for the morning.





Also my Owly Powly quilt. I haven't put the faces on the owls yet, except for one owl.. but he hasnt got a mouth yet. I am very pleased with the outcome so far. I have cutout one other border which I will be adding circles to...I will probably hand applique them on.. Ill see how I go.

So... Happy Easter everyone...

  5. Lisa, you are killing me! This is all so stinking cute! How ever will you keep that quilt away from Khris and Naomi? I like the first branch because it looks like one owl is facing us and the others are facing the other way!

  8. Hi Lisa - thank you thank you thank you! The gorgeous fabric arrived this week. I'm so sorry for my late reply, but I was asked to do a stall at an Easter event and only had 8 days notice! I have literally sewn the sskin off one of my fingers (not a good look). The fabric is so me I am thrilled. I think that I can post again so fingers crossed I can thank you publicly. love & hugs xxx
