Hop Into Handmade: A Cuddly Review of the Kullaloo Bunny Easter Basket Sewing Pattern
Okay, can we all just take a moment to appreciate how ridiculously adorable this bunny Easter basket pattern from Kullaloo is?! I stumbled across it while hunting (pun fully intended!) for some fresh DIY Easter ideas, and I instantly fell in love. If you’re a softie for cute sewing projects and love making your own holiday decor, this one might just hop to the top of your to-do list.
So let’s talk details.
This isn’t your average Easter basket. Oh no. This is a soft, plush, bunny-shaped Easter basket—complete with floppy ears, a sweet little face, and enough room to stash plenty of chocolates, mini toys, or even some decorated eggs. It’s like a cross between a cuddly toy and a functional holiday basket, and I’m here for it.
What really sold me, though, is the thoughtful design and clear instructions that Kullaloo is known for. If you’ve used their patterns before, you already know they’re fantastic at walking you through every step—even if you’re not super confident with your sewing machine. This one is no different. Whether you’re a seasoned sewing pro or just starting to dip your toes into the world of softie-making, the pattern is beginner-friendly with enough challenge to make it fun.
This tutorial has been very helpful for me. My project is making a slip cover for a basic wooden chair using McCall pattern M4404, view A calling for making a gusset. This will help me to see how to do it easier. Thank you.
