ready ... GO !

 

Yesterday evening

my Easter Bunny looked finished

 

but was not !

 

When making a wet felted animal like this

you build up the whole figure with

soft gentle felting

...

Later on

 

the rubbing gets a lot harsher ...

 

and a very good soak afterwards !

(and then ... still a lot of harsh rolling in a towel)

 

But now,

after all weathered hardships,

mister Bunny is quite ready

for his important task tomorrow :

hiding yummy chocolate eggs

for the grandchildren !

 

(he did a bit of a try-out today)

 

He did it quite well

 

so he enjoyed the sun afterwards

with his basket emptied.

and the gorgeous Bluebells !
