My race to the finish to get all the hair grips completed for Me&FYC might have come to an end, but I'm still trying to keep motivated by working on other projects I've had shelved in the interim. Things such as my bunny canvas.
I've had this in the pipeline since making the bunny garland for my friend earlier in the year, when I ccidentally cut out two bunny shapes I didn't need. Not to put anything to waste I decided to make a cute wall hanging. 'Bunny Love' is all but finished, I just need to search for a compatible trim to finish off the edges and screw its hooks into the back. However, you can see it's a fairly simple design, with my nana's vintage fabric bunny shapes fixed onto burgndy felt and stitched with metallic thread onto the A5 canvas. I've used sequins and bows or details and matching roses to fill out the top and bottom opposing corners. In order not to leave a lot of blank space I've stitched (again with metallic silver thread) the phrase 'bunny love' onto the canvas, and painted over it in pearlescent rose and silver fabric paint.
Once I get my paws on some peach lace to trim it'll be finding its way to Folksy, Etsy and my 'Haunted Houses' page on this 'ere blog of course - so watch this space!
