Both Sides of Bunny

Ridgewood Needlepoint just got a shipment of double-sided bunnies in the shop. These remind me of the MCM two-sided dressed rabbits that had the sweetest faces that are no longer available.  If you are a MCM fan, you might want to look into these.  Ridgewood doesn't say who the designer is. Sorry.  I'd like to credit them for these very nice rabbits.

It Wouldn't Be Easter....

It wouldn't be Easter without a glimpse of the Easter bunny tree that one of Steph's friends puts out each year.   The double-sided rabbits (and the single cat) are canvases from MCM Designs.  These are no longer available but they turn up on eBay occasionally.  Expect to spend about $80 or more if you find one.

Happy Easter if you celebrate the holiday, happy Sunday if you don't.

The Easter Bunny

I think this MCM double-sided rabbit is the cutest bunny I've ever seen. Happy Easter Bunny!

Unavailable for Easter

Stephanie teases us with a show of Easter bunny ornaments from the now retired MCM. They are sooooo cute!  It's too bad that they are no longer made.  eBay is the only spot I find them these days, but search the forgotten back corner of shops. You may still find a few here and there.

Happy Easter from the Easter Bunnies!

The Swans Are At It Again (Spring Edition)

Stephanie's SWAN group in Texas has been meeting again. Stephanie posted photos of their current projects on her blog for our enjoyment.  For me the star of the show is the newly made up Melissa Shirley double-sided Easter rabbit stand up.  Wait'll you see her!

But there are other darling pieces that are stitched or underway.  Want to see one of those fabulous but now unavailable MCM rabbits?  Want to drool over a nutcracker Boy Scout in uniform?  Or see the cutest 3-D Easter house in Texas?  All of this is above, thanks to Steph's quick camera.

The Easter Bunny in Stitches

As an Easter celebration, Stephanie is showing off stitched rabbits on her blog. These are Melissa Shirley stand ups, and they are magnificent.

This is Ruth's Easter tree, full of MCM wide-eyed rabbits.  Apparently these are no longer available (see comments) which is a shame.
