Tilda Bunny Soft Toy

Tilda Bunny Soft Toy

My kids requested a Tilda bunny soft toy. Each. That's a lot of bunnies to make in one go...

I love everything Tilda by Tone Finnanger. However, the bunnies are not my favourite Tilda toys, they way they are presented and dressed in her books.

So I had to dress them up a bit in "made up" dresses, all using Tilda fabric, of course, and some handmade crochet flower "headbands". But that's the beauty of Tilda designs - you can make them your own, and each time they will turn out completely different. It took a whole Sunday of sewing (I'm still learning) but they turned out better than I expected :).

Whilst Tilda bunnies are fun to make, there is a lot of hand stitching involved, especially around the limbs and ears.  I've had enough after two bunnies, so three more are currently waiting to be done in a half-done state.
