Creation
STEP 1
Pin the pattern onto the folded gray fabric.
STEP 2
Cut along the edge without adding any seam allowance.
ÉTAPE 3
Fuse the Vliesofix onto the pink and black fabrics. Transfer the outlines of the eyes, nose, and ears onto the fabric using the pencil, then cut them out.
STEP 4
Fuse the eyes, nose, and ears onto the front of the pouch, placing them in their respective positions.
ÉTAPE 5
Sew the ears, eyes, and nose in place with small zigzag stitches. Be careful not to forget to unfold the pouch!
STEP 6
At the top, on the edge of the ears, pin the narrow bias tape to both sides of the triangle and sew in place.
STEP 7
Fold the pouch and bind its side seams with the wide bias tape.
ÉTAPE 8
For the pompon, place a small piece of yarn in the middle of the fork and wrap it several times around the fork.
STEP 9
Tie a small piece of yarn tightly in the middle of the yarn you just wrapped around the fork.
ÉTAPE 10
Cut both ends of the yarn along the sides of the fork.
STEP 11
Trim the pompom to even out its shape by cutting it uniformly all around, then sew it by hand onto the back of the little bunny.
It's finished!
