This is a pattern off of the Moda Bake Shop blog that would keep your bunny fabric in one piece. You could just use this as an idea and go from there.

I was thinking warm wishes until I saw Marica's post. Figgy pudding would be great for those cute bunnys. No fussy cutting with this one. :-D

Let us know what you do. :-)

Oh wow how nice. And no I don't mind at all. Gives me ideas on how to proceed. Thanks so much for posting it.

LOL, have no fear on that pattern, not something I would want to try as a first time as I have not done this pattern before.

Thanks for sending this link Marcia, I really love it. This just might be the ticket. Although everyone has sent awesome ideas. I appreciate all the time everyone has taken in sending ideas. Now all I have to do is get my wrist healed so I can get some things done.

I saw a quilt once where the square/rectangle piece of material was extended by cutting around the heads/feet of the animals - which extend into the edge of the border. Kind of like where they are popping out of the frame...Don't know the name of the quilt. Has anyone else seen this??

If you search Warm Wishes on this board, there are posts with pictures of this quilt made by some of the members. Lots of great inspiration!
Thank you for this pattern!!! I think it will work lovely with the bunnies and I think I have some fabric that it will work well with too!!! I am thinking about making my granddaughter a bed quilt & was thinking about using the Irish Chain but I might like this even better.
