Angel-phants

My niece wanted a quilt with elephants, but the fabric was either too young or old for her. Grandma said she tried explaining something to her, but she didn’t understand. I understood my niece perfectly - it was can we applique the elephants on the front of other fabric, yes. The hunt began for a pattern and we settled on the Windham Fabrics Paisley Splash, but instead of increasing the size of the elephant to make a wall hanging, I shrunk the size of the water splashes for 12 individual elephants. This is my niece’s Ellie-phant quilt made with her fabric choices.
