About Me

I love to make things. I make things out of fabric (and sometimes make my own fabric), I love making books and I make things using wire, papier mache and found objects. Welcome to my blog. Here you will find little bits of daily life, my latest news and the odd ramble.

Welsh Rarebit (Rabbit)

I have been trying to find something to use my scraps of fabric up, I can't throw anything away and some pieces are too big to throw away.  So I have been looking around on etsy and have come across a few makers who use their scraps of fabric to make soft toys and characters, instead of throwing them away.

I always have calico handy so tried  a 'crash test bunny' in that first, what do you think.




 I decided he was too skinny and too small and the way I had attached his legs means he is unable to sit down.  So I made another one.

I gave him some dignity and made him a pair of trousers.  I am still not happy with the shape of his face and his ears are too long.  So I made another.
 
 
Much happier with this one.  It's just unfortunate that he was born with pink ears!  I might make him a dress and turn him into a girl.  He will be on my etsy shop for sale in the next few days regardless of whether he is a he or she.  http://www.coralwilliams.etsy.com/

Thank you for looking
