Abigail & Bronwyn Bunny

The Abigail & Bronwyn Bunny doll is my absolute favourite, although I love Johnny the Mouse, and I have a soft spot for Myrtle Bunny. These girls are so sweet and lovely you wouldn't hesitate to give one to your newborn baby, in fact I have sold a few to date for little babies to cuddle. They're very happy, I don't need to tell you, it's obvious.

"Abigail and Bronwyn Bunny are each other’s very best friends. They share all of their ideas and play lots of sport too. You might think they’re just the same but Abigail and Bronwyn are two very different little girls. Bronwyn loves to listen to music, but Abby prefers to read. Abigail’s favourite colour is pink wheras Bronny likes blue by far the best. The girls are ‘dicephalus’ twins which is very, very unusual. They think they’re lucky! Abby and Bronny always have someone to talk to!"

Johnny the Mouse

Back at the dawn of time, in early teen years, my Grandma showed me a doll she’d bought at an Op-shop. It was the most unusual doll I’d ever seen. She said ‘Be very careful, it’s old and frail’. A hapless mouse with its head caught fatally in a trap, its arms hanging limply by its side. We laughed.
The original mouse uses Nylon in its very earliest incarnation, which by now has almost gone back to the dust from whence it came.
I have the modified the design somewhat, adding a tiny, blue, bloodless tongue and some unscratching claws, but essentially it’s little body remains the same.
Try to enjoy making your own sad little Johnny, and be particularly careful not to get your fingers caught in the trap.

Poor Johnny the mouse
no more scurrying
around
the house
the trap snapped
his head
and now he’s dead
poor little Johnny
the ex
mouse

Miss Myrtle Bunny

This doll is sweet as can be. I've made it in velvet as well and have a couple which sit with their arms wrapped around each other. Very cute.

'Josephine Myrtle Bunny (known simply as Myrtle to her friends and family) was born a most unusual bunny. She had one big warm heart, one very clever brain, but two sets of legs and two tummies! She was a rare and special girl. Myrtle was a ‘dipygus’ twin and everyone loved her.
One day her doctor said, "Myrtle, you are having baby bunnies in your left tummy!" Myrtle was surprised, if it had been her right tummy she would have believed it, she said. But he was quite right, she was definitely expecting!
Myrtle soon delivered her litter. She had five baby bunnies, two little cheeky boys and three little darling girls. Later on Mr. and Mrs. Bunny had four more litters. They had thirty-six children in all, can you imagine!'
