Bunny and Violets

March 21, 2022 By patgeary

I recently saw this design posted in one of my Facebook stitching groups and new I wanted to stitch it. It’s called Bunny and Violets by SamplersPrimitive. It is one of several bunny designs she offers.

The chart was available as a pdf download so I bought it.

One a recent trip to my local Michaels store, I found two pieces of printed DMC 14ct aida that I purchased. One was called Sunset 3609 and was shades of pink, blue, and lavender and I decided to use that piece to stitch this one on. The regular price of a 15×18 piece of the fabric is $11.99 but I had a 30% off coupon.

The design uses 25 mostly DMC colors and I had all but a couple in my stash. Purchased the others with the fabric. I had most of the Weeks Dye Works and Gentle Arts floss and subbed DMC for what I did not have.

I finished stitching this on March 20, 2022. As you can see by the photo below, the colors are much darker than the photo of the finished piece shows. If I was going to stitch it again, I would select different shades of the green. I will most likely finish it as a small pin pillow.

And the backing fabric for this one is the same deep purple I used for Easter Parade.
