Bunny Bookmark
 

Bunny Bookmark by CrossStitch

I found this cute bunny border in a magazine. It was shown with all the bunnies in the same color. I gave my youngest daughter my floss boxes and the instructions to pick out some pastel colors. This is what she chose:

Color DMC Number
Blue 747
Purple 3836
Orange 945
Yellow 727
Pink 3713
Green 564
Brown 738
Tails 746
Grass 702
Backstitch 434

I doubled the number of threads used on the bunny tails — so there are four strands of 746 instead of two — to make the tails appear puffy. I think it would be fun to a fuzzy fiber like Wisper for an extremely poofy effect!

I'll be giving this bookmark to another member of my quilt group for her birthday this month.
