Dionne’s Draught Excluder 2019 - Part 10

I am leaving the Rabbit’s Face for now and moving on to the Ears

Rough Drawn Ears

I took some Black material and Folded it in half. I Pinned it to make sure that it didn’t move. Then with a piece of Chalk I drew a Rough Rabbit Ear Shape.

I cut out the Shape and repeated so I had a pair of Ears. Next I Hemmed around the Pair of Ears.

Sewing Pipe Cleaner

The next part was a little difficult. I wanted to Stiffen the Ear with a Pipe Cleaner. Unfortunately it was a little short so one Side of the Ear would be a bit softer.

However I placed the Pipe Cleaner on the material and Folded the Hemmed Edge over it. I Pinned Sewed as I went along. I was also adjusting the Shape as I went.

Rabbit Outer Ear

Annoyingly I was half way through and the Pipe Cleaner had come out so I had to Unpick and redo. I then finished the other half of the Ear. Please note that I am only putting Pipe Cleaners in One Side of the Ear.

Rough Rabbit Inner Ear

Now the Outer Ear was complete I could now start on the Inner Ear.  I took a piece of White material roughly the same Size as the Outer Ear. I will continue this in the next blog.
