What’s more adorable than a bunny? A baby bunny obviously. These simple DIY bunnies feature removable diapers and carrot shaped bottles. These little guys go together in no time and are a great DIY felt craft for spring or anytime you need more baby bunnies in your life.
You will need:
Felt for bunny body, inner ears, and tail, we used White, Peanut Butter and Grey*
2″x 2″ scrap Pink felt for inner ears and noses we used Amaranth Pink*
Felt for diaper we used Honeydew, Sunshine and Sparrow
3″ x 3″ scrap orange felt for carrot, we used Carrot *
3″ x 3″ scrap green for carrot top, we used Cilantro
Black DCM or cross stitch thread
Stuffing
Felt glue (to fix diaper closed optional)
Bunny babies pattern template (end of post)
*Matching Thread
Cut:
2 bunny bodies, 2 of each bunny ear and 1 bunny tail per bunny
1 diaper from color of choice
1 inner ear and one nose from pink felt
1 carrot, 2 carrot strips from orange felt
1 set of carrot tops from green felt
Stitch down nose and inner ears to one of the sides of both felt bunny ears and nose to body. Stitch face details onto bunny. Use french knots for eyes.
Sew ear fronts to backs with an overcast stitch. Leave the bottom open to stuff.
Stitch the ears to the body with a running stitch and then continue to overcast stitch around the outside stuffing each section as you go.
To make felt diaper
Sew tail to the center back. Diaper can be folded on or glued if you don’t plan on changing any bunny diapers.
To make carrot bottle
Stack two strips on top of each other and sew down along the tip.
Fold so rounded edge is on top.
Overcast stitch along side. Sew small gathering stitches stitch loosely along top of carrot.
Stuff lightly. Stack carrot tops together stitch through base and pull to close up top.
Run the needle through the top and carrot a few times to secure.
Sew level stitches along the carrot body to give it a few dents. Knot. Fluff out carrot top.
Happy Crafting!
