Bunny...now with blanket

More bunny talk! My first attempt at patchwork in many years...very simpel and not that lucky. But it was actually rather fun - especially because the pieces fitted a bit better this time. (Years ago I made some patchwork, which was not successfull at all to put it mildly! Crooked and irritatting are the most positive words I can say about that).

Time time it was a challenge to find the varoius fabrics to put together.

I tried to use a "flower theme" and to make red, pink, light blue and orange be the generally colours. To combine the prints and colours were definitely the most funny part, and I think that I could get rather impressed by that exact procedure in the future.

I had thought that this blanket would be the last thing I did, before I sent the bunny in the mail, but I have yet a plan. The baby Binky Bunny needs a tiny bunny toy friend....

    Så söt, kära Ulla! Jag får lust att börja med kaniner, men det blir ju Alice in Wonderland jag kommer jobba med. Och först Alice förstås, sen kanske kaniner ;-)

    Ser fram emot den lilla vännen...

    The patchwork blanket is simply beautiful along with the bunny.

    Hvor er det bare fint Ulla - og sikken en sød kanin. Bliver altid så glad, når jeg kigger på dine skønne billeder af stoffer og farver, og lige nu er jeg træt (for meget arbejde) har ondt i hovedet (forkølelse der ikke vil gå væk), så det var et dejligt pust!

    Var lige forbi hjemmesiden, med den lille strikkede kanin, du lavede til en lomme i en nederdel den anden aften. Jeg drømmer om at lave en til Lise, men måske hun allerede er for stor. Tænker på en kjole til 1. skoledag, med en lille kanin i lommen til at tage den værste nervøsitet........

    I'm happy that you like it, Nicole - I'm not a good patchworker at all! :0)
    Now it's the little bunny which needs to be knitted. ;0)

    ...........

    1000 tak, kære Juliane :0)) Det lyder bestemt også spændende med Alice in Wonderland. Den film har så mange skønne figurer!
    Så må du lave kaniner senere hen. ;0))

    Lige nu laver jeg så den lillebitte kanin, for en kanin, må have en kanin ;0)

    ..................

    Oiyi, I'm glad that you think that they go well together. :0)) I spent a lot of time mixing the fabrics for the blanket - I kept changing them over and over...

    ................

    Tusind tak, Gitte. Det er dejligt at du blev glad af at se på den lille kanin. Så er det ligesom det hele værd at blogge, synes jeg. :0)))
    Jeg håber, at du snart kan tage den med ro og holde fri, og igen blive frisk efter forkølelsen. Det kan sommetider trække ud i evigheder synes jeg.

    Det er lige præcis den kanin jeg er i gang med igen. Uha, som det tager tid med den slags småtterier (og frembringer lettere irritation!)!
    Jeg synes, at det lyder som en genial idé med en 1. skoledags kanin i lommen - kaniner bliver aldrig for gammel til. Og tænk hvilken tryghed det vil give, at mærke dén kanin ens mor har lavet. :0))

    This time it definitely worked out with the patchwork. It fits so well together and looks great!

    well, Ulla, the patchwork turned out GREAT, so I'm glad it was a different experience this time! I've done my share of crooked and frustrating projects, so I feel ya.
    I can't wait to see Bunny's little friend. Will you be posting a picture?
