Bunny for a Bunny Boy

For my nephew who will be born in the year of the rabbit:- Started with a scary alien-like fetus: added stumpy legs to hold the body up: A bushy tail to support it from the back, and coz it's just so cute: Two cute floppy ears and long arms: Looking a bit sad with the threads dangling:  embroidered nose, hid all the threads inside the body, and...
