Despite their simplicity and naivety, all these animals, princesses and angels contain powerful energy, a piece of the soul of the author who creates them, and they, of course, cannot leave anyone indifferent.

Tilda rabbit with your own hands: how to sew? Master class and pattern

To sew a bunny, you need the following materials:

  • Plain body fabric
  • Fabric for clothes that our rabbit will wear
  • The pattern according to which Tilda the hare will be cut
  • Threads, needle
  • Filler (sintepon or holofiber)
  • Scissors
  • Fabric marker or chalk, with which the pattern will be transferred to the fabric
  • Accessories for clothing decoration

We take the material, iron it with an iron, fold it in half (right side inward) and put on it the pattern previously transferred to paper.

To prevent the template from moving around on the fabric, you can pin it together with pins. We cut out the parts of the toy, leaving a few millimeters for allowances.


Now you need to sew the blanks, while leaving small holes. In places where the parts are rounded, we make small cuts with scissors so that the Tilda hare turns out neat.

To make the rabbit voluminous, fill each part with filler evenly and tightly.

Sew arms and legs to the body. The lower limbs can be sewn on like this: turn the feet to the sides, straight or inward. We sew the legs with a “back needle” seam.

We sew the arms with a hidden seam. We now have a hare with legs and arms.

In order to sew the ears, we cut out two parts from plain and colored fabric.

We sew them down and turn them right side out. Sew the colored side to the head. This is how we get a rabbit with ears.


We embroider the eyes and nose with black thread. Use blush to paint rosy cheeks.

Now the master class moves on to sewing clothes that the hare will wear.

You can sew panties and a sundress using the pattern found in this article. According to the proposed scheme, you can see how the trousers are sewn together.

According to the following scheme, we make a sundress and decorate it with various accessories: beads, lace, ribbons. You can also sew your own apron for Tilda the rabbit.

We put on the clothes and attach them using a hidden seam.

If you have a desire, you can make a carrot or a chamomile and hand it to the rabbit’s paws. You can also sew some kind of hat, handbag, or other fashion accessory.

This completes the master class, and we have such a cute Tilda hare, made by ourselves. He will happily settle in your home and will cheer you up every day! Creative success!

The Easter Bunny is a tradition with long roots. In Germany, already in the 16th century, the Easter bunny was a symbol of fertility and wealth. In North America, as well as some European countries, there is a custom to hide Easter eggs. The awakened children rush to search the entire house and as a result discover the Easter bunny in a “nest” with many colorful eggs. Sweets and toys are made in the shape of rabbits, as well as souvenirs that look like entire families of rabbits.

Like Valentine's Day (February 14), this tradition has become widespread in our country. Children really enjoy playing and making up stories about these cute toys. Therefore, rabbits must be present at Easter. Bright, funny figurines of Easter bunnies in baskets with colorful eggs will be a great table decoration, an excellent keepsake for your guests, as well as talismans that bring good luck and wealth. And sewing such an Easter bunny with your own hands is very simple. We offer you several options.

So, to sew the Easter bunny, we will need small pieces of chintz bright color or any other cotton fabric.

Make an Easter bunny pattern out of paper, attach it to the fabric (you can pin it with pins) and cut out two parts. Don't forget seam allowances.

On the front side we embroider a muzzle. To prevent the embroidery from stretching the fabric, it is lined on the inside small piece calico, but it doesn’t need to be lined.

We immediately sew on the decoration - on our sample it is a heart.

Sew the rabbit together, leaving a small hole for stuffing. If desired, you can insert a tag on the side.

We turn the toy inside out, stuff it with padding polyester or other toy filling and sew up the hole with a hidden seam.

To make the second rabbit, we also prepare a pattern and cut it out with seam allowances.

On a sewn oval made of plain fabric (you can use thin fleece) we embroider a muzzle.

We cut out the paws from a fabric of a different color and sew them together.

Turn it inside out and stuff it with padding polyester.

We fold the two parts of the future toy with the front sides inward. Mark the places where the paws will be

We insert the paws inside:

And sew them together, leaving a small hole for turning them inside out.

Turn the sewn rabbit right side out. We stuff it with padding polyester and sew the hole with a hidden seam. The rabbit is ready!

Easter bunny tilde

Another variety of Easter bunnies are tilde bunnies. You can draw the tilde Easter bunny pattern yourself, or you can use this option:

To make such an Easter bunny, it is better to use cotton or linen fabrics.

The face of such a rabbit is embroidered with thread or drawn acrylic paints. Clothes for tilde rabbits can be sewn or knitted.

Napkins in the shape of an Easter bunny

Interesting decoration festive table will become linen napkins folded in the shape of a rabbit.

Step 1. Take a square starched linen napkin and fold it lengthwise into three layers.

Step 2. Mentally divide the napkin vertically in half. The upper right corner needs to be folded down so that a triangle is formed from the right half of the napkin.

Step 3. We bend the left corner in the same way.

Step 4. Now we bend the lower right corner up diagonally towards the center.

Step 5. We do the same with the left corner.

Step 6. We have a rhombus. Again we take the right corner and wrap it towards the center again.
