ISO Bunny Sampler

Jan 07, 2007 17 Replies

Hi Guys, OK, the DNiece is due 05 February and I am almost finished with the baby quilt and the diaper stacker -- done in Peter Rabbit fabric. DN absolutely **loves** bunnies and I was thinking of doing a birth sampler with either Peter Rabbit or bunnies. Can anyone recommend something along these lines? It doesn't have to specifically be designed as a birth sampler but I *would* like some sort of band sampler that already incorporates bunnies. I know, I know -- I could do up my own as they aren't that difficult but I just don't have the time or the inclination. Adding birth info to an already designed band sampler with bunnies will be effort enough for MOI :-). Thanks for any leads & CiaoMeow >^;;^<

hope you find just what your looking for!! mag

OOOOO -- IIRC, I have something VERY similar!! I had forgotten until you posted this! I'll have to go check my stash. :-((( Nope, I have Pig or lamb or fishy or flamingo or bear or multiple kitty alphabets but not a bunny. I'll have to check my big fancy alphabet books -- they have all sorts of designs, especially for the holidays. I bet they would have a cute bunny alphabet for Easter. I could always just do the kids name in bunny letters and then add the birth info. That would be quick and easy. I want to make one for Kelsey (the DN) and one for Betsy (my DSis and soon to be Nana). If I do something relatively quick and easy for Kelsey, I could do something a bit more involved for Betsy.

OMG -- is that mommy Bunny and baby not a darling sampler?!?!?!? I wonder if it is available this side of the pond. Now that I know there is a Beatrix Potter bunny birth sampler made, I will have to look for it! Decisions, decisions, decisions :-) -- for sure I will have to make at least two birth samplers! Thanks again & CiaoMeow >^;;^<

I also ordered a Beatrix Potter Rabbit birth chart, several generic bunny/spring charts and an absolutely gorgeous chart of egg shaped band samplers (3 different one, I think) made of specialty stitches AND bunnies! I think I will do one of those for my DSis with all of the birth info included. I KNOW I will do one for the SMDGD, maybe for a birthday one of these years.

Thanks bunches to everyone for the GREAT links, etc. It's so rare that I actually need to look for needlework charts -- LOL! I have a truly mind boggling amount of stash but that doesn't mean I have *exactly* what I will need for a specific occasion :-)! CiaoMeow >^;;^<

I have a Beatrix Potter ABC Sampler that you can have. Brand new. It's not a birth sampler per se, but it would still fit with the theme. LMK if you're interested.

Lizzie Kate's Bless the Baby is a quick stitch and has a bunny button.

I have an old iron on transfer set of alphabet bunnies in two sizes (it's at least 14 years old - I orginally started the project when pregnant with DS (now 13), finished when DD was about 5). The bunnies are holding/doing things that represent the letters and some are very atypical - for example, O is for Opposite and S is for Shy. Let me know if you are interested.

Another thought - have you seen the "Guess How Much I Love You" projects by Candamar? They have a birth record:

I'll have to check my stash -- I have a boat load of Just Nan charts 'cuz I love all the different bands of stuff she designs :-)! Thanks for the link -- I might just have this in my stash -- who knows?!?!? Certainly not MOI -- LOLOL! CiaoMeow >^;;^<
