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 found you by reading your comment to Farmgirl and thought i would add my colors of pink and brown. My fav combo of late. I hope your trip goes well. Being a nurse i want to know all about your grandfather. hope all is ok.

  11. lisa s Says:

    oooohhh buny=cute. i think all your color combos are good! how bout something w/ orange too?

    have a good trip - i know what you mean about trepidation. i hope it goes well and that grandparents are OK [maybe that’s not the right word, but you know what i’m trying to say]

  12. wendy Says:

    ky - thank you

    beverly - love farmgirl!
    and pink and brown sounds great together…need to get me some pink

    lisa s - that is a fabulous idea, and I have orange

    a very lovely bunny idea :) hope your grandfather is better!!

  14. ashb Says:

    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
