Rupert Rabbit3

 

Rupert Rabbit  joined his sister Rita today on the Moor. They are a very sweet, huggable, poseable pair.  As soon as Rupert was finished both patchwork hares jumped up and down on my bed, and then scampered away to have some fun…haven’t seen them since lol! If you adopt one or both of these sweethearts, you’ll have your hands full!

As you can see, they are already hanging around the place having fun! :)

Tilly Woolmouse3 We are very excited to send Tilly Woolmouse to Italy tomorrow!! She is going to be a friend to a little girl named Federica (what a lovely name!) but sssshhhh Tilly needs to hide till Christmas! Tilly is so excited, I hope she doesn’t pop out of hiding too early!

Tilly has a few sisters, newly born. They are already adopted!(thank you so much!!) We are just telling them about the wonderful new places they’ll be traveling to. We’ll post pics when they are finished and ready to go.

Some more of our Craggy Moor Friends got in touch with us, and told us about their blog too!

Autumn days are busy days here on the Moor but we LOVE it! Big thank you’s and hugs to our newly adopted Craggy Moor Friends, and especially to the wonderful folks who adopted them!!

 

There are new bears, hares, and lambs in the works this week too. Check back often to see who pops up!

Meet Rita Rabbit! A Storybook kind of friend

Rita Rabbit2

Rita Rabbit seems to have hopped right off the page of a favorite childhood classic! She’s 10 inches tall from head to foot, 15 inches from eartip to toe! She’s made of a wonderful buttercream colored cotton with sweetly matching cotton calico accents. She has a bit of super soft angora on her muzzle too!
Her stuffing is weighted to give her that nice, slightly heavy, “real” feel we love so much.

Rita’s sweet nose and smile are handstitched with cotton floss. Her eyes are pretty amber tigers eye stone beads.

Like all good rabbits, Rita has a sweet cotton tail, made of white cotton yarn.

Rita is a very special rabbit because she is delightfully poseable. She is 5 way cotter pin jointed with hardwood disks and our own galvinized steel handmade cotter pins. They have proven to be much more durable than a standard cotter pin!

We love the “wobble joint” set up because it makes Rita floppy and huggy like a baby, but sturdy, and so much fun to carry and pose.

Rita Rabbit is one of a kind, and individually made. Each of our Rabbits have their own sweet look-perfect for gift giving or add Rita to your own Warren of sweet animal friends!

Coming soon! Rita’s brother Rupert!

Because Rita has small parts, please use your discretion when buying for children under age 3.

Handmade is the very best way to say I love you!

Rita is up for adoption today!
