  Tips - Sewing With Velveteen   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
When sewing with velveteen, be sure to always sew in the direction of the nap - this allows the fabric to run smoothly through your machine.
Velveteen does contain a pile (this means there are looped or cut fibers on the fabric, like terry cloth).
If the velveteen just needs to be "refluffed" and not washed, place it in the drier with several damp towels for 15 to 20 minutes.

 The Velveteen Principles | News & Reviews
The Velveteen Rabbit is Margery Williams' clever and aphoristic nursery story about a toy stuffed rabbit who was suddenly thrust into a world populated by an apparently well-to-do child's numerous and varied toys.
The Velveteen Rabbit, at great risk to himself, helps the boy endure scarlet fever and discover the value of his life, but is then ordered thrown onto the trash pile by a germophobic physician (the Humanists never have liked technology much!).
She uses a delightful combination of her own life experiences and the hidden lessons contained in Williams' The Velveteen Rabbit to present the reader with twelve simple rules that can be used to negotiate one's way through the "United States of Generica," and "Become real" in the process.

 The Velveteen Rabbit
He took the Velveteen Rabbit with him, and before he wandered off to pick flowers, or play at brigands among the trees, he always made the Rabbit a little nest somewhere among the bracken, where he would be quite cosy, for he was a kind-hearted little boy and he liked Bunny to be comfortable.
Instead of dingy velveteen he had brown fur, soft and shiny, his ears twitched by themselves, and his whiskers were so long that they brushed the grass.
He gave one leap and the joy of using those hind legs was so great that he went springing about the turf with them, jumping sideways and whirling round as the other did, and he grew so excited that when at last he did stop to look for the Fairy she had gone.

 Velveteen Rabbit Study Guide
Fancier toys teased the Velveteen Rabbit because he was only made of velveteen and stuffed with old sawdust.
As time went on the Velveteen Rabbit’s beautiful fur became shabby, his tail began to come apart and all the pink came off his nose where the boy kissed him.
For example, if the first moment is selected, when the boy finds the Velveteen Rabbit in the Christmas stocking, in a group of four, one student portrays the Boy, one portrays the Velveteen Rabbit, and two students become the stocking.

 The Velveteen Principles, A Guide to Becoming Real
The Velveteen Principles is a guide to becoming Real-Real with ourselves, Real with our hopes and desires, Real with the people we love, and Real with everyone else, too.
And it shows us that, just as it was for the Velveteen Rabbit in Margery Williams' enduring fable, Real is a process that is sometimes intimidating and sometimes painful, but in the end far more rewarding than we ever could have imagined.
But with the help of a wise old skin horse and a sawdust-filled bunny, The Velveteen Principles will set you back on the course to Real, and remind you that Real isn't how you are made, it's something inside of you.

 The Velveteen Rabbit
HERE was once a velveteen rabbit, and in the beginning he was really splendid.
At first he found it rather uncomfortable, for the Boy hugged him very tight, and sometimes he rolled over on him, and sometimes he pushed him so far under the pillow that the Rabbit could scarcely breathe.
And so time went on, and the little Rabbit was very happy–so happy that he never noticed how his beautiful velveteen fur was getting shabbier and shabbier, and his tail becoming unsewn, and all the pink rubbed off his nose where the Boy had kissed him.

My daughter introduced me to THE VELVETEEN RABBIT when she was five and we read it together until she knew it by heart.
I was reluctant at first to view the filmed version of the story; too many of my favorite books had been badly adapted to the screen, their plot telescoped to accommodate intrusive songs and music and irrelevant characters.
However, this animated version of THE VELVETEEN RABBIT has managed to keep the emotional content and magic of the original story.
