Snowman and Bunnies

Design - "Whee Willie"
Designer - Heart in Hand
Fabric - 32 count Dirty Belfast linen
Fibers - WDW - 2 strands over 2 threads
Started - 28 January 2013
Completed - 29 January 2013

This was a great project to use up little bits and pieces of floss.  The pattern calls for the word "Whee!" to be stitched above the three horizontal lines.  I decided I liked the 'cleaner' look of the piece without "Whee!".

In the morning the bunnies come for breakfast.

One

Two

Three

One, two, three!

I feed them back under the cover of blackberry canes and other brush to help keep them safe from predators.  The bunny on the far left has the most interesting face.  The pattern of his fur on right side of his face is much darker and 'disturbed'.  I can't tell if it is an injury or just an unusual pattern.

  3. Cute snowman! What do you feed the bunnies? I always thought they could fend for themselves. We have tons of them, even in this cold snowy weather.

  10. I feel like you had a picture of a bunny last week with a gash on his face? It stuck out to me at the time. I just love bunnies (owned a pet one who lived to the ripe old age of 11!) and I know they are prey but it makes me sad to think of them, you know, getting eaten. :(
