Instructions
- Download and print the bunny pattern on two sheets of paper and cut out. The pattern pieces should go together as shown below.
- Fold the burlap sheet in half. (We will be tracing and cutting the pattern on a fold so each side stays together.)
- Place the ears portion of the pattern near the fold and trace around the entire pattern with a marker. Use scissors to cut out through the two thicknesses of burlap.
- You will be left with two bunnies that are connected by the ears. Open them up and first sew around the ears with a zig-zag stitch, leaving about a 3-inch portion around the ears unsewn. (This part will hang on the flag holder.)
- Fold together both burlap sides, and sew around the entire bunny, except the area for hanging.
- Make the bunny tail by creating a large yarn pom-pom. See the link below for how to make these with yarn. Make the largest one possible and use a lot of yarn to make it as full as possible.
- Use a needle and thread to sew the tail onto the front of your burlap bunny flag. You can sew one onto the back as well if desired.
