Lemoni (only my second bunny) is so named after a character in the film ‘Captain Correlli’s Mandolin’ and for no other reason than I’ve always loved the name since I saw the film years ago; and as the viscose fabric is a rather pretty lemon colour, it seemed appropriate. Her inner ears and paw pads are genuine Liberty Tana Lawn fabric and she has pretty lemon and pink ribbons around her head.
Lemoni is 8 inches/ 20cms from top to toe and 6 inches /15cms sitting height. She is 5-way cotter jointed, with a wobble neck joint and filled with firm fibre filling and steel shot for a good bit of weight. She has black glass eyes and has been slightly aged around the edges with oil pastels to give a bit of a vintage look.
On her back you can see her fabric ‘Handmade at Bilberry Lane’ label and her unique antique style ‘BL’ pin.
Lemoni’s finishing touch if a lovely little strawberry made from a deep red wool fabric, with a bit of green for the leaves, plus leaf and flower charms, which has been pinned on her chest with a rusty style safety pin.
Lemoni can be purchased for £50, plus shipping and packing:
UK - £8 Special Delivery
Europe - £15, tracked and signed for

ReplyDeleteI love everything about Lemoni!
ReplyDeleteYou really have made a very special & sweet little bunny bear, Julia!
Best wishes!
Outstanding work Julia! So much love and care has gone into making little Lemoni! Just a suggestion: Would it be useful to have Lemoni (and any of your bears) put next to an object we are familiar with - so we can see the scale? Maybe you could get a person to hold her in cupped hands or place her next to a teacup? I look forward to seeing all of your creations Julia- my block printed bag pales into comparison! x
