Two of my colleagues are pregnant, so with most of the selling-this-house-hassle behind us (for now), I finally had some time to do something creative again, et voila:

I went into town earlier to stack up on t-shirts and textile paint, and just now I did my first experiment. You can see the result above. I quite like it actually! It might become my pride t-shirt!

I’ve been making this rabbit for my aunt’s wedding day (as one does ), and it actually turned out near-exactly as I had planned it, which is quite unique in my universe.
Here it is:
Close up of its cutie-petootie face:
