Sewing Together all the Pieces:
Starting with the ears - Flatten the Pink ears and place the inner ear pieces in the
curved side of the ear. Sew the cream piece onto the ear making sure to not sew
through the backside. Do this for both. For the crooked ear fold the top quarter of the
ear down and make a couple of stitches on both sides to hold the fold. I played around
with the fold until I liked how it sat.
Sew the ears to the top of the head. Use the magic circle on the head as your space
between the ears. Sew the ears on with their natural curve to keep them standing tall.
Sew the body on the head, toes facing forward. I pinned the body to the bottom of the
head to make sure it was centered. Sew the arms in the crook of his neck on each side.
Flip him over and sew the cream heart to his butt. For the tiny Pink ball at the center of
the heart I wrapped pink yarn around itself until I had a tiny ball and then sewed it in the
middle. If you know a knot or better technique please feel free to use that :)
All that's left now is to stitch in his face. I placed his eyes in the center of the head about
4 stitches apart. His nose is a row beneath his eyes, bringing the mouth down to the row
where the sts start to dec on his head. Please use pictures for reference, I hope this
helps :)
TA DA!! Now your little bunny Cooky is finished! I hope the pattern was easy to follow!
