    1. Best for Babies<\/span>: (Baby Bunny Pattern)<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n

    Let’s begin with the bunny that’s best for a baby or child’s 1st Easter! Baby Bunny<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span> was the very first Funky Friends Factory pattern, and he\u2019s still hopping along after over 20 years. Yep, he started it all. You can make this toy entirely baby-safe by using easy hand embroidery for the face or sewing on felt features. He’s an easy pattern for a beginner and fast to sew. Baby Bunny is sized just right for infants and new baby gifts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Paula Blevins<\/b> uses the<\/span> Baby Bunny pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0to make toys for donation to a local charity for new moms and their babies. For size comparison, here\u2019s Paula\u2019s adorable toddler grandson posing with some Baby Bunny toys before they hopped off to the charity. These bunnies are sewn from fleece fabric and have hand-embroidered eyes (a French knot is all you need). Paula used a felt triangle as a nose, but you can use embroidery floss, too.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    If you’re making a toy for a toddler or a clothing keepsake, the Easter Bunny\u00a0 Buddies pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span> is the pattern for you! The Easter Bunny Buddy is the biggest of the bunny patterns. This bunny is a cuddly armful with floppy arms and legs!<\/span><\/p>\n

    For size comparison to an actual child, here\u2019s one of my all-time favorite pics of the Easter Bunny\u00a0 Buddies pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a> getting some love. This one was sewn by Angie Elwood<\/strong> made from the little girl\u2019s upcycled baby receiving blankets.

    The Easter Bunny Buddies sewing pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0has a lot of space to show off cute fabric designs, and that\u2019s how a lot of memory toy makers use the pattern! This adorable baby keepsake toy was sewn by Kate Webster<\/strong>\u00a0who used the large flat one-piece, tummy space to embroider the baby’s birth stats!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The easter Easter Bunny\u00a0 Buddy’s<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span> large ears are also a fabulous space to add text or highlight a special item of clothing for a memory toy like Amy Ruitland Jones has done – adding the child’s name and intials.<\/span><\/p>\n

    3.<\/b><\/span><\/span>Best for Kids to Sew<\/span>: (<\/b><\/span>Kawaii Kuties Bunny Pattern)<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

    This is the easiest of the 3 Funky Friends Factory bunny patterns. This pattern comes with a little diaper and bib, complete with carrot applique.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    What size is the Kawaii Bunny?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

    Finished toy size<\/span>: 31cm \/ 12 inches<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    This toy is probably bigger than you expect, but that just makes him easier to sew! <\/span>I don’t have a pic of a child holding the Kawaii Bunny<\/span> BUT the Kawaii Kuties are all the same size. For size comparison you can see 6 year old Kinlee<\/strong>, with the Kawaii Fox she sewed in the TIP box below…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    TIP: SUPER sewing pattern
    \nfor teaching children to sew!<\/span>\ud83e\uddf5<\/span><\/b><\/span>\u2702\ufe0f<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

     <\/p>\n

    With only 4 main pieces, the Kawaii Bunny is a brilliant bunny pattern that you can use to teach a child to sew. (There are LOTS of other animals to choose from in the Kawaii Kuties range. There\u2019s also a bear, cat, chick, dog, fox and raccoon.) <\/span>Kinlee is only 6<\/strong>, but with her mum guiding her on the sewing machine, she sewed her own Kawaii Kuties Fox!<\/span><\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Here\u2019s a cute<\/span> Kawaii Kuties Bunny Pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\u00a0in its felt outfit, sewn by <\/span><\/span>Jen Hales<\/b>. This pattern does NOT use plastic eyes, so it’s baby-safe AND you can whip it up fast with supplies you have on hand. Not sure about hand sewing for the face? Fabric glue works great, and there are other kid-friendly options: you can use fabric markers, fabric paint, or HTV (heat transfer vinyl).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
