I just can’t help it.

I officially have Spring Fever.

I tried to control it as long as I could.

But…I had a need to “bunnify” something.

This No Sew Sweater Bunny Pillow was the perfect cure.

A $4.69 Goodwill sweater was the perfect color pink.

Cause if I am going to “bunnify” myself, I wanted

something cheery and Springey.

A plain white IKEA pillow cover was the perfect background, too.

I created a paper template by free-handing a bunny pattern

on paper, and cut it out.

Then, I simply traced it onto the sweater and cut it out the shape.

So easy!

Whenever I create anything from a sweater, I am

always asked about fraying and unraveling.

Honestly, with these cable-knit sweaters, they

hardly unravel at all.

I did run a small bead of low-temp hot glue around the edge and

slightly rolled the sweater to create a “finished” look.  This will also

prevent extra fraying.

More glue held the bunny pattern into place, applied

right onto the pillow form.

Next, I wanted to make a cute tail.

First I used jute twine, but after I made it – I didn’t like

the “roughness” of it.  So, I grabbed some cotton twine…

I wrapped the twine around my four fingers about 20-25 times.

Then, slid it off carefully and tied the center with another smaller

piece of twine., then cut through all of the end loops.

Then it was just a matter of fluffing it out and hot gluing it

onto the bunny.

Ohhhhh, love that cute, little bunny tail. 

wiggle, wiggle, wiggle

Laughing

Finally, I added a bow.

You may recognize this ribbon from my Valentine Wreath project,

“How to Create a Double Bow.”

How to Make a Double Ribbon Bow Like a Pro by The Everyday Home 

One of the reasons I chose this particular ribbon was its

versatility to go from season to season.

I stuffed the pillow with a pillow filler…

And placed it on the front porch in one of our white rockers.

It’s a burst of sweetness and pinkness and Springness and

cheerfulness and “Bunny-ness.”

(feel free to use any of these official words)  Smile

    That is adorable. I do not think I would include the bow just because it would most likely be ruined or snagged on something. I love the tail though!

    That pillow is just darling, Barb. See, I am one of the people that think it is easier to sew something than glue it…lol…too many burns over the years, I think….that and I don’t want to be caught sniffing the glue!;>) Love the cute tail, too. xo Diana

    I would be more likely to sew him, just because it would be easier for me. I love his tale, all he needs now is a button eye.
