Bunny in the Daffodils: an original hand embroidery kit design for Easter
What is included in the kit?
- A delightful hand embroidery kit featuring a little rabbit nestled in spring daffodils.
- The embroidery design hand printed on a folded piece of French antique French Linen, enough to make the finished embroidery into an egg cosy, or use the spare linen for a second rabbit by transferring the design from the drawing.
- A thread card loaded with all the threads you will need to complete the design.
- A folder printed in full colour with instructions, illustrations and an actual-sise drawing of the design. Instructions for making up an egg cosy can be found in the Free Downloads section.

Additional Information
I love wild rabbits. It is partly the Beatrix Potter-drenched childhood, but mostly they are just adorable.
So, here is a rabbit, just over 2 1/2 inches high, with daffodils, for you to stitch in time for Easter. There is enough linen for you to make it into an egg cosy for the Easter table, or you could make a little needle case or notebook cover for an alternative to chocolate for an Easter gift. Use the drawing in the kit to make a second one on your own fabric. A little egg cosy for the first boiled egg also makes a charming christening gift.
Anyone can tackle this: the stitches are straight stitches, sometimes close together like satin, sometimes a version of long-and-short stitch. More important is imagining the fur of a rabbit as you stitch. The palest pink ears and the little nose are my favourite bits.
