Cut two faces from cream wool felt. Cut four cream bunny ears. Cut two inner bunny ears out of pink felt. Place the pink inner ear on top of the cream bunny ears. Sew down the center of the ear to secure the pink felt to the cream felt - the pink will be open on both sides and that's OK, that's how I like it. Pinch the bottom edge of the ear and sew a few stitches close to the bottom edge of the ear to make a little pleat - this will help the ears stick up more on the finished slipper.

Cut out a pink nose and place on the bunny face. Using a water-soluble fabric pen, trace around a small button (or draw a circle freehand) for two eyes. Fill in the eyes using a satin stitch embroidery thread and a back stitch. Repeat to make the second bunny face.

Take one bunny face, two ears and one slipper upper. Pin the bunny face on top of the slipper, slipping the ears between the two layers about 1/4". Sew across the top of the bunny face close to the edge to secure the bunny face and ears to the slipper. Stitch around the perimeter of the face to secure it all around - it will make it easier to attach the sole later. Turn the slipper inside out and set aside. Repeat for the other slipper.
