Burlap Bunny Pillows

I can't get enough of these appliqué bunnies in the Anna Griffin Grace fabrics!!  I had some left over from my Bunny Bricks Quilt so I thought I would make a few burlap pillows for gifts.  They are so cute and sew up really fast.  

Here's how you can make one:

• Cut 2 pieces of burlap 8" x 11"
• I already had the Heat n Bond Lite fused to the bunny, so I just ironed it to the center of the burlap.
• Stitch around the bunny twice using brown thread.
• Pin the two pieces of burlap wrong sides together.  
• Cut a 17" piece of lace and pin in place, tucking the raw edges inside the pillow.
• Sew 1/2" seam around the pillow leaving an opening at the bottom to stuff.  Stuff with fiber-fill and top stitch the opening closed.

They are so cute, and did I mention I love bunnies?  They are the cats of Easter :)
