Now take the main hat piece and fold it in half. Sew from the bottom edge up to the first point and stop. Before sewing the other points, you must insert the ears!

Pin one ear into the seam of the point opposite the completed one. Pin the other ear into whichever of the two remaining seams the first ear is facing. Turn the hat gently right-side out to check that the ears are both facing forwards and re-pin if necessary. It's less important that they are at the same angle as they'll fall over whenever the hat is on anyway.

Stitch the seam opposite to the first one, to the edge of the point. You'll now notice that the remaining unsewn part makes pretty much a straight line across the top of the hat... sew it closed.

Try the hat on various people to see if it is cute yet! Trim off a bit if necessary, corresponding to the height of the brim. You need about 3 inches for the rabbit face so don't cut off too much.

Cut two little fangs out of white felt and pin them to the center front of the hat. It's a KILLER bunny after all. Then pin the brim on (I quarter each part and match up the quarter marks to ensure it's evenly spread) and sew around the edge, stretching as needed to fit.
