There once was a bunny
Remember how I said I'm not so good at finding the right words in emotional times?
My friend has had a rough week - okay - year.
She recently lost a childhood friend to cancer. It was unexpected and heartbreaking.
I didn't necessarily know what to say.
I do, however, know what makes her smile....bunnies. Easter is her favorite holiday and little bunnies just seem to cheer her up.
So, I made one. I found a pattern at www.bysmallmeans.com and got to work. To be honest, I'm not much for sewing up and I refuse to make clothing for toys or dolls. Still, I had a good time knitting and stitching goodwill into this little critter.
He's far from perfect (as is life) but he's soft and all ears -- a perfect friend.
There he is hanging out in the most beautiful tree in the neighborhood!
