I've been stitching and stitching and stiching all weekend and it's finally finished!
May I introduce my new Folk Art Fusion piece titled "Lady Hannah Goldenhare."
Yes Hannah, mama named it after you cause you're such a pretty bunny! (Don't I have the best models? hee,hee,hee)
Here's a close up of Hannah. In real life she would eat that flower collar in two seconds flat!
Here's a close up of the flowers. Have I told you how much I love wool? Remember, you can buy some
in my Webshop if you want to play with some too.
The wool applique and patchwork borders are hand stitched with Valdani 3 strand floss. Love that stuff too!
I'm working on my Folk Art Fusion book. Gosh is this going to take a while to write, but it sure is fun. My goal is to have it done by April. I can't wait to share this technique with all of you!
Have a fun week and do something creative!
xx, Michelle and the Bunnies

Wow a new book and a BOM next year, you're busy, busy, busy. Can't wait for both the book and BOM. The wall hanging is very beautiful, you're very talented. Thanks for sharing.
Love the new piece. It looks like a lot of stitching was done on it.
Beautiful job, beautiful model.
Another beautiful piece Shell! I love the pink you've used - so sweet. Your talent continues to amaze me. blessings, marlene
Simply adorable!! Good luck with your book. Won't your little bunny family be proud of you?
Love this and love your real life bunnies! I recently added you to my sidebar of my blog so I would not forget to stop by.
Beautiful Shell..looking forward to seeing your Book.
cheers
We can't wait for you to share either! Will your BOM include some? And, Hannah, you are a beautiful model!
Lady Hannah does make a stunning model. Love how the flowers and the pink/white/green border coordinate.
Fantastic! Beautiful artistic rendering of a beautiful model. Love it!
A book? Do you think you could send some of your drive and motivation my way?!
Love this Lady Hannah Goldenhare! The pink wool is beautiful...as is this sweet little bunny. She must feel so soft to touch :-)
So very lovely, just like Lady Hannah herself! Love the flower collar (although I can just imagine the battle you'd have trying to put one on the real Hannah).
The quilt is beautiful! Hannah looks a little disgruntled, though. Was the modeling fee insufficient, or not paid in a timely fashion?
It is just fabulous...
Congratulations Shell, your book is going to be wonderful. The wool looks great & Lady Hannah is a perfect model. Tracee xx
All the stitching was well worth it! Beautiful job!

Simplemente perfecto, bellÃsimo felicidades.
Shell - Your "Hannah" piece is wonderful!!! Who says you can't find good help these days?? Love, Kris
It'sreally beautiful . I have never work my apliques with wool, where i live is not that easy to find. That's why i enjoy looking all the things so nice made of wool. Love your bunny!!!
I love it! And what a lovely model you have.
It's lovely, Shell!
Looks terrific Shell, tons of stitching there. Best wishes for the writing. Happy days. Chrisb
Oh, what a wonderful quilt! I just love it, and it makes me miss my mini lops. I have lots of Rabbit Paw blocks to assemble into a top, and there may have to be bunnies and brambles in the borders.
Shell... love the bunny. But where is the star on her nose? Surely it can't be Lady Hannah with out a star kissed nose? Maybe you could embroider one on for her??
Hugs
