Description
Make your own Easter Bunny! This cute bunny has jointed head and arms and a BIG fluffy tail! I show you how to make it all from start to finish in the full color tutorial. She comes with in the hoop made easter dress, stuffed eggs (or use plastic eggs), a real Easter basket, and magnet carrot. The arms are magnetized so she can hold her basket, her carrot or say her prayers.
