Creating Keepsake Bunnies, is something I enjoy doing very much. I love the whole process from start to finish.
 |
| Sisterly Love Both hold special memories |
Being ask to create something from some outfits and blankets, that hold special memories in the owners heart, is always an honour, and to be trusted with these special garments was just that.

The Process: |
 |
| A sketch and a plan for layout and design |
 |
Next comes the details. Carefully unpicking the details from the garments, placing and cutting the pattern, then adding the embroidery and appliqué. |
Keepsake Bunnies are then born
 |
| Nicole's was predominantly made from her beloved Baby Blanket Details were picked out and appliquéd to the body and ears A little part of the dress big sister bought her, was used on the ears Hand embroidered details were added for those finishing touches True memories wrapped up in a Button Jointed Bunny xx |
 |
| Chloe's was created, using her Flower Girl Dress form the '90s Picking out the details, so it still looked like the dress. Lace overlay some of the fabric for more interest. Parts of the dress she bought for her little sister was added for interest, details and of course memories. A little part of Nicole's blanket was added for the ears, as a special touch. True memories wrapped up in on Original Keepsake Bunny xx See how I create another Original Keepsake Bunny here From every cut and stitch, each one is carefully tailored to suit the client's needs.

*Little Bunny Keepsakes, are 'sit on the shelf' items and are not suitable as toys, due to the fabric and small parts used. They should not be left with a child under the age of 14. They are a Collectable, potential Heirloom, which should bring lots of your love and memories to life*
