old velvet rabbit doorstop (vintage rose velvet)

Description

This little 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 field of fresh grass, and wonders whether she will keep her vintage rose colour (which she is rather proud of) when her wishes finally come true...

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

She made from a soft rose velvet and a pretty floral linen 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 glass German 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.

Little 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.
