Head: 
Sew the ears to the head. Place the butterfly bow on the head and sew along the edge to secure it.

Use brown yarn to embroider a Y-shaped mouth. Create eye sockets by passing the needle back and forth through the eye positions multiple times, then attach safety eyes or beads into the sockets.
Embellishments: 
Apply a bit of pink blush to the nose, feet, and both cheeks to make the bunny look more lively.
