My daughter has been asking for a rainbow and pink Penelope Bloom Bunny for over a year. Yesterday, I decided it was time to fulfill on my promise and make her one. I checked on my daughter late at night, and noticed that she slept with her new bunny snuggled tight in her arms. That made it all worth while!
Haakon picked this handmade, small brown Penelope Bloom boutique bunny to be his friend. It is the perfect size for his three-year-old hands. His big sister Asti picked out the medium dark pink bunny. And…big pink bunny with sweethearts has also found a special home. Oh happy day! Handmade by Sweetheart by Janna

Meet Big Pink Boutique Bunny At the insistence of my children, I redesigned my existing bunny pattern to create the “BIG” bunny and I am thrilled with the result! This beautiful 18 inch, bright pink bunny,  is made with ultra soft minky (the  fabric used to create upscale baby blankets). Her limbs and the inside of her ears feature three coordinating floral cotton fabrics. Her hand embroidered face includes tri-colored brown eyes and a cute green nose. Taking only a measly… Read More
Poor pink boutique bunny. With your ouchies and boo boos galore. Hopefully some hugs and kisses will heal your accidental scars, and detract from your rather distorted head. But you’re beautiful just the way you are. Medium, light pink, Penelope Bloom boutique bunny. Handmade by Sweetheart by Janna
Meet Yellow Bunny Adopted by Chloe My three-year-old daughter has been begging me, for the past several months, to make her a yellow bunny. The request came at unexpected times over the course of any given day, which meant she’d obviously given it some thought And how could I resist the pleas of this beautiful little girl. I’d make her the moon if she asked…a stuffed plushie of course. She needed a friend… Read More
Meet Medium Red and Small Blue Ninja Bunnies Made at the request of my sons, these bunnies are not only soft and cuddly, they are super-hero ninja fighting monsters. Subjected to beatings and masterful escapades, they’ve been known to find themselves in the most unpredictable situations. Until rescued by my three-year old daughter who carries them around everywhere and makes sure they are tucked safely beneath her covers at night. Battered and bruised, small blue bunny has… Read More

Meet Brooke. This pretty bunny is affectionately referred to as “purple bunny” in our home. After hours of adapting my original bunny design and sewing together Purple Bunny #1 (disaster – officially referred to as ugly bunny) I went back to my initial design and made some smaller adjustments. Purple Bunny #2 was born. I will continue to play with her pattern a little before deeming it complete. More pictures will follow I’m sure. At 6.5… Read More
Meet lovely Lily. This cute little (6.5 inch bunny) was born today at noon and has been the apple of my daughter’s eye ever since. It took quite a bit of cajoling to convince my two-year old to part with her new-found friend, and as such, I consider myself lucky to have these two photos. I have non-stop obsessed over the development of this tiny sewing pattern, hoping to be able put to good use… Read More
