Making my own spring

Since spring doesn't want to come visit me I decided to start making my own.

I recently saw the cutest bunnies on another blog and decided to try and copy it. I set out to make a pattern and came up with this. Now this guy may not be as cute as Denise's bunny over at The Krazy Kraft Lady  but I thought it came out pretty cute. I wasn't entirely happy with the ears so I did do another and change them just a bit.
I used some very retro looking material that I picked up in a thrift shop. I've got a ton of this stuff and haven't been able to figure out what to use it on.


He even comes with a matching egg. For the egg I glued the fabric on to a plastic egg and then painted a layer of glue on top of it
