I’m impressed to see how good your grandmother’s work still looks. When my last child was about to be born, I made my toddler daughter a “bunny house” to be a quiet toy in church while I had an infant to pay attention to also. It was the most adorable plastic canvas house with a handle on top and half the roof lifted for play access. The front panel had zippers down both sides to fully open the house for play. The plastic was all wrapped in batting and covered in appropriate fabrics with windows, shutters, doors, and 3D grass and flowers around the house for gardens. Inside I made plastic canvas furniture, a bed with sheet, blanket & pillow, chair, etc. Then I made a bunny family of four to scale, complete with clothes. It was too cute for words (not my original design, I had a pattern), but the first trip to church with it I was horrified to find how loud a strip of velcro to open the top of the house was in a quiet worship service and it never came back to church again. Now I realize I could have replaced it with snaps, but I was far too busy to think of it then.

Over time, though it was taken perfect care of and stored carefully, the plastic degraded inside the batting and fabric and a lot of it was just crumbles inside. My daughter had it in storage at her new house when it was destroyed by the Alabama tornadoes this April. We found it in a box that was only wet, but there was nothing but crumbles of the plastic inside the batting and fabric. We have still kept it as it basically has the same shape, but the plastic is more like rattle contents inside and this project is only 27 years old. That’s why I’m amazed your grandmother’s looks fine. But oh what a cute bunny house!
