Rabbit softie.....take two!

The past few days have been so hot at my house, the mercury hit a lovely 39 degrees in my living room a few days straight..........the air felt hot to breathe, it was simply disgusting! I didn't feel creative at all!! This time next year will be a different story, I can't wait to be in a house which has insulation and doesn't feel like a hot box!
So yesterday was a nice surprise, it was cool and fresh with a nice breeze........perfect! I instantly felt inspired to make something..........take two on the rabbit softie!
I made just a handful of these rabbits last year, this time around I thought I might use the same pattern.......just change things slightly!
 These colours are quite girly but I assure you the next round will be for the little man...........I had an idea in my dreams last night and I'd like to give it a try on the boy rabbits before I reveal, just in case it looks like it has no business being there.
 On to a totally different subject, a while back I made 40 of these gorgeous little owls for a lovely lady, they are being used as favours on the tables at a christening today. She has put ribbon and tulle holding sugar almonds on them......here they are all boxed up ready to go! I love it when someone so sweet takes the time to show me things like this............thanks Helena!
Have a lovely Sunday....I'm going to have a coffee then get the kids uniforms ready for tomorrow!

If only our own parliamentarians could be as sweet as this parliament of baby owls.

They all look so pretty there together, what a sweet idea for a christening. I can't wait to see your bunnies all finished that is a very cute rabbit face you're showing there. Enjoy your coffee, & the slightly cooler weather. We're heded for 41 here today, and to think I've been crocheting scalves this week!
