a world

I made a world for them. When I couldn't find the perfect bunny house for sale, I glued wood and moss and stone, late into the night. I crafted grass, and a pond, and a path between the two bunny families. I felted rugs and bowls, sewed tiny curtains and pillows. I released my love into each piece, working as they slept, and with every stitch I sent thoughts to my little ones:

I love you.
I believe in you.
I am so happy to be your mommy.

Awesome job! You did in days for rabbits what Freddy spent years doing for chickens.

Oh my goodness, Laura, can we all come over and play at your house???!!!!! That is a GORGEOUS world! And I love that you stitched your love into each piece. Precious. I love the table top idea. Can you elaborate on how you made the flat base that lays on your table? Is it just felt or leftover fabric, or ?
