Thanks for joining us all this week while we share projects featuring Indygo Junction Crossroads Denim by Amy Barickman! We have loved working with their products and hope you’ve enjoyed the projects!

It would not be spring around the house if tere were not some bunnies taking over! When I saw the beautiful colors the denim comes in I immediately pictured some fun pillows!

How heavenly is that stack of colors!

Instructions:

1) First I selected a free bunny template from the web..here’s the link to the one I used. Once you decide ont he size you’d like the bunny to be for your pillow, load a piece of HeatnBond® EZ Print Lite Sheets into your inkjet printer and print the design. Next cut out the design.

2) Once the bunny is cut out from the HeatnBond® EZ Print Lite..I then flipped it over and traced it onto the denim. Then cut out the design from the denim. Once you’ve vut out the bunny it’s time to press onto the backing piece of denim.

3) I cut a piece of the soft aqua that measured 14 by 14 inch square. Heat your iron and press HeatnBond® Lite onto backing fabric. Then remove top liner and press denim bunny onto fabric.

4) Next I hand cut a carrot, some greenery and a paw (well that’s what I am calling it) for the bunny to hold the carrot.  For the greenery I cut a strip of fabric, folded it in half and then made long cuts on it to create a fringe look. Then I cut another piece of the denim to wrap around the base. Then I used the Liquid Fabric Fuse™ to attachment the green denim to the carrot. I also hand cut a small nose and used the Liquid Fabric Fuse™ to adhere it to the bunny face.

5) I followed Amanda at Jedi Craft Girl’s wonderful envelope back pillow tutorial found here on the blog, for completing the pillow.

6) I purposefully roughed up the edges of the bunny and the soft aqua by pulling at the denim to fray it. I thought the bunny and the edge of the soft aqua denim needed a bit of softness around the edges.

    I’m working on several large projects at the moment, but on the crafting table right now is a fabric Easter basket with bunny applique…so much sewing and crafting to do, so little time!
