Whee! I've made more progress on the purple bunny! The most important news may be the fact that I've named the bunny. He is Mr. Fluffybottom, and he is most decidedly British. While watching American Inventor last night (gawd, the tears on that show), I finished Mr Fluffybottom's ears and body, and sewed them all to his head. The seams look like crap, so I'm very seriously considering throwing Mr. Fluffybottom in the washing machine with a load of jeans, just to see what develops. I say, that sounds extreme. OK, in case it's not clear, Mr. Fluffybottom speaks in italics. So here's what Mr. Fluffybottom looks like now: Not bad, not bad. Except that when I looked back at the exemplar bunny on the Jess Hutch website, I realized that my bunny's face is not only upside-down, but all the features are in the wrong place! Dear me, this is like a bad Emergency Vets/Dr. 90210 crossover. Luckily, the magic of Photoshop makes it possible to see what Mr. Fluffybottom should look like: Step aside, Ace, America's got a new popinjay to idolize! Unfortunately, I simply don't have the cash to pay for reconstructive surgery, and until I knit Mr. Fluffybottom's arms, there's not much hope that he could earn enough money doing odd jobs to pay for the surgery either. There are no odd jobs, only odd people, er, bunnies! Anyway, we'll just see how everything turns out. Oh, and in case you were wondering what that weird brown thing is in the background of Mr. Fluffybottom's before-and-after pics, it's my ceramic ET lamp wearing a skein of Bernat Disco as a wig. Speaking of odd bunnies...
