Greg,
I don't know how to do a bunny and I would love to have you do a class.
How many days do you think this would take? I would also like to learn how
to do that bird of paradise napkin.
So lets talk and plan a class. I have openings in FeFebruary so let's
talk.

What I'm hearing is that people already know how to make the bunny. I keep
hearing that people want to do a bird. Well, the only "bird" thing I find
in
Google is a bird of Paradise folded napkin which is a flower I believe. I
will have to hunt for more items before agreeing to teach a class. If
someone hasn't made the bunny and wants to, a class is doable or I can
post
the instructions. But, that seems to violate a rule of not allowing class
type material to be distributed to all. So, I'm not sure how to proceed.
Greg

Susan,
More information, please. Wash cloths animals, cut and stuffed and
sewed...please share her idea of how. I have made a Boo boo bunny and have
seen birthday cake, do not know how to make it, but babies coming and need
all new ideas, this sounds wonderful, if you can share the idea.

My sister makes the cutest washcloth animals that are cut, sown and
stuffed
for babies.
