a bunny idea…

I am headed out of town again this weekend. I was thinking of trying to tackle this little guy and finishing up a couple of dolls that I have been working on. Taking a little bit of fabric and thread with me. It is not going to be exactly a pleasant trip my grandfather is sick and I haven't seen grandparents or my mom in years. I have some trepidation about the trip. More on that later.
I don't check my luggage, so I can't take tons of fabric. I am thinking the head would be two colors…and the body one color. My initial color combinations were two greens, or grey & pink, or yellow & blue (all felt). I don't have grey or pink right now and probably wont make it to the fabric store before I go, but any thoughts? Or any other color combos that you'd like to see? I appreciate the help. If this bunny goes well…I might do a limited edition run like I did with the penguins. I have a couple more penguins left to make until I get to fifty. Then, no more penguins from me.

Yes, definitely yellow and blue. I certainly understand wanting to move on from penguins, I am feeling the same way about gnomes.
I can certainly understand your trepidation about the trip, take care.

Ooooh bunnies!! Oh I can not wait to see them in all of their color combinations. My favorite is still turquiose and red, but those aren’t very bunny like. I love and adore this drawing!
I am wishing you all of the best on your trip. I am sorry to hear about your Grandfathers sickness and I hope this “reunion” goes well. HUGS!

can I place an advance order for a bunny?
I love gray and pink but a green bunny would be really nifty too.
I hope everything goes well trip-wise. I’ll be thinking of you.
xo, abee

shari - yellow and blue it is! I am hoping it will be good to see him
shona - yeah for the yellow and blue, it is cut out and waiting in my backpack for the plane ride
johanna - thanks for the call…talk to you when I get back, I have some good treats planned!
michelle - thank you
daphne - I have to get some pink when I return…thank you!
christine - I never thought of red & turquiose…I have those colors that will be great…the bunny is already going to be a bit too un-bunnylike.
thank you for the trip wishes
abee - totally…whatever color you would like!

I love this bunny & I’m glad to know this next batch of penguins will be the last round because I want one! I need to get in on having one of these little guys
but now I also love the bunny!
I liked Lisa S’s idea of orange, an orange, cream & chocolate bunny would be precious!
& I’m sorry to hear of your grandfather, I know exactly how you feel, I have an uncle who has cancer & is on that balance beam of should I try a new chemo or should this be it. I’m dreading the fact I may have to travel there and see all this sadness. It’s a really tough situation, my thoughts are with you.
hugs,ash
