Plastic canvas again! I love it it's faster than almost anything and so versatile you can make almost anything from it. These bunnies are so cute! I will have to get busy and make six of them before Easter. If I have time and ambition when I'm through, I might use the same pattern and make a table runner.

Super cute Easter idea. But these are too cute to put away after that! I haven't done any cross stitch in a long time and I have never used plastic canvas. I think I will like the plastice better because it will be easier to see than fabric with its tiny squares.

This is so cute, great for Easter. My grandkids love rabbits.
