This past week, I sewed a pretty pink princess bunny plush for myself!  I really haven’t made a plush for myself in ages~
She is covered in glittery fabric (the pink inside her ears & the cupcake print for her dress are coated with glitter) and lots of lace, pretty trailing ribbons and pink flowers!

Here is the pattern I followed to make this, a reprint of a vintage sewing pattern!:

Simplicity 2595 Vintage Angel Bunny Plush Sewing Pattern

However, I did not follow the last steps of the pattern 100%…
I did my own thing for the bunny’s pinafore rather than using eyelet lace,
and I did not give her angel wings…

Now I shall share some process pics!

Laying out the pieces and just getting started~
These are all on white fabric, but you can see the pink ear piece
I already cut out on the left

–

Getting ready to start sewing is always so exciting!

–

Here is the bunny body mostly sewn up, but not stuffed yet!
LOOK AT THIS DUMB DEFLATED BUNNY I LOVE IT SO MUCH.

–

The bunny is looking slightly less dumb but its arms are still unstuffed
and it looks SO DOOFY.  I put extra weight into its butt and feet
with weighted stuffing pellets~
A plush Harvest Moon chick is helping to support it to sit up.

–

Here is the face embroidered with sweet pink eyes and ribbons and flowers
over her ears!  I think this is the first pic where you can actually tell
that the pink fabric is sparkly.

–

With the bunny’s body done, it’s time to make a cupcake dress!

–

There are soooo many small, meticulous stitches required to make clothes for plushes…
making those sleeves was super hard. ; ^;

–

The main dress is finished!  This bunny is a good model.
I also skipped several steps involving making a slip and petticoat netting
for under the dress.  That skirt is sooooo ruffly (it’s only slightly under
the amount of fabric I would use to make a skirt for myself!)
so I did not think the extra volume was needed.

–

More small, tedious sewing for the bodice of the pinafore.

–

At this point, I started straying from the pattern’s instructions and
started doing my own thing, adding lace and decorations where I liked~

–

And she is done!  Manymany hours went into this project,
but I’m so happy to have such a pretty, sparkly bunny princess
who is covered in cupcakes and ribbons and flowers.

–

I’m really happy with her!
If I wanted to, I could even make new dresses for her~
But, I think I will take a break from making tiny sleeve stitches for a while!

Entirely hand-sewn and made from softened felt in white and pink. Lightly stuffed but basically two-dimensional.

One of the first things I ever made.

This bunny is so convinced he’s a penguin, he even wears a tuxedo vest and top hat. He has hand-ebroidered eyes on either side of his head, but they are somewhat difficult to make out. He can see, I promise. c:
