This velvety rabbit dreams of becoming a REAL rabbit - she heard the story of The Velveteen Rabbit when she was just a wee kitten (she informs me that that is the correct name for a baby rabbit and not a bunny as I once mistakenly called her). So she hops from one window sill to the other, dreaming of leaping through fields of fresh grass, and long lazy days in the warm sun...

This old velvety rabbit is a doorstop, suitable for INTERNAL DOORS.

She made from a soft chocolate brown velvet and a pretty floral cotton fabric, and stuffed with toy stuffing and lots of rice to give her weight. Old velvet rabbit stands about 28cm tall from nose to tail (35cm including her ears). She has vintage boot button eyes, a little nose stitched with linen thread, and a little needle-felted bob tail made from Wensleydale fleece. She has wonderfully expressive ears. I have finished her simply, with a tiny ribbon and rusty bell.

old velvet rabbit was stitched on an old Singer treadle sewing machine using one of my own patterns. She is intended as a decorative item and is not suitable for children.
