The quilts on this page are "Bun Fun" quilts, made to benefit the Ohio House Rabbit Rescue. Most of these quilts can be reproduced or made similarly to the pictures, customized in different colors, styles, and layouts according to your specifications. A few of these quilts are available for sale (indicated below). Enjoy viewing my Bunny Quilts! |
The quilt below is entitled "In Miss Potter's Garden" because it features characters from Beatrix Potter's beloved tales. It is made from a themed fabric and some wonderfully-soft pastel shirting fabrics, and the backing is the pale green stripe seen throughout the quilt. It measures 30 x 38 and is suitable as a baby/crib/nursery quilt or child's wall quilt.
A similar version of this quilt, primarily in soft blues and greens with a pale blue backing, was made in a 32 x 32 nursery size (to be used as a wall quilt) and also is pictured below. Several other versions (not pictured) of this quilt also were made, similar to those shown.

The possibilities for this quilt are endless, and a version of it would make a wonderful, nostalgic lap quilt for an elderly person in a wheelchair.
