Rabbits, birds and hearts....

 Making some fun linen rabbits for Artfest...hope to get some more cats and owls done too.
 The birdie pin cushions got into the bird feeder for their picture. I still need to add tail feathers....

 Little hooked brooches for my rug hooking students at Artfest.

I hooked up this rabbit last night and then had to re-work it this morning. I wanted to make 2 rabbits, one in each direction for a local shop to display for springtime. Below is the drawing for tonight's work.

Your rabbit is wonderful Mary! I've been wanting to hook one for spring. Also, I love the chicken in your previous post. And.... your birdie pin cushions are awesome! I really admire how you are able to produce so many different creations.

Love your funky animals and birds for artfest Mary....so quirky and gorgeous.
Love your rabbit. We have quite a few hares (and the odd rabbit) where I live, I love to sketch and draw the hares.

Always beautiful work.
