    I found this free pattern: http://secretworkshop.com/resources/...546bb510f7eebb

    Have you thought about using a bunny panel (cheater fabric) and then working around that?

    Check these out:

    Thank you both very much! I have paper pieced and that may be an option I go with. Those fabric panels are adorable! I'm going to try to order the one with the small bunny sashing. It will be perfect for borders or possibly the bumper pads.

    Yes, I'm not only making a quilt but also the entire crib set and items for the nursery...bumper pads, wall hangings, diaper stacker, laundry bag, "baby sleeping" door hanger, and anything else I can think of LOL!

    We want bunnies on everything, so if you know of other patterns...keep 'em coming! And THANK YOU in advance for anything you find! :D :D

    Good Morning....I am also looking for pieced bunny squares and not having much luck. I have found pieced blocks for everything from eggplants and mushrooms to a cheese danish, but No bunnies!! Go figure!! Anyway...I just found 7 books at my local library that I should get in a few days. I will look for you and let you know if I find any bunnies.

    I searched the forum but the word "bunny" is used a ton here LOL!

    If any of you know of a pieced rabbit square and can help me, I'd really appreciate it.
    Are you wanting PP about the ARK it has every animal you need in it

    I love this bunny quilt. Hillgal posted this the other day. It looks like it's pieced. You could send her an e-mail.

    Here is one I found when I was searching for free paper piecing projects to kick of my PP page for my website.

    It is a gorgeous bunny. I want to make one! I think it would be adorable for a garden quilt - okay, more like sadistic since bunnies are not gardener's friends...

    If you are looking for a more realistic bunny, this would be your ticket ;)

    The quilt that Ranger posted is from the book Quick Rotary Cutter Quilts and the set is called Baby Bunnies Crib Set. The set includes a quilt, wallhanging and bumper pads.

    There is also a cute pattern that I have seen recently - the blocks include bunny, bear, elephant, pig, dog and cat.

    Hi! The bunnies just don't seem to be out there do they? I was really shocked at how hard it's been to find them! I hope, if anything, this thread has helped you some with your search. Let me know if you find something good in your books. :D

    One of the members was really great and snail mailed me a pattern. I knew I was going to have to adapt it a little so I figured...If I'm being so stupid and picky about this one quilt and accessories, I may as well be completely stupid about it - and I broke down and bought EQ 7!! Between the program and the pattern, I should be able to get exactly what I want.

    Oh that's too cute! That one would make a great wall hanging!

    That bunny is very realistic - I might have to make him just to hang in my house!

    Those are adorable too! I think at this point I may end up with enough pieced patterns to make a great bunny sampler!


    Thank you to everyone for your help!!

    :D :D :D

    It is hard to find nice bunny patterns! I have to make one this fall for a friend and have been looking. There was a cute pattern that sold on ebay called Hare Raising Experience by Prairie Grove Peddler - ©2003. It is a few bunny heads amongst leaves.

    I would like to use minky type fabric for their bodies so that they are more tactile and feel soft. Last year I made one with sheep - the bodies were made with white cabbage rose minky and their faces and ears were flannel. There were 5 in separate cotton blocks that looked like fencing - turned out really nice.
