Exciting New Patchwork Elephant and Matching Baby Quilt

Use Leftovers And Fabric Scraps.

The baby quilt is fun to make, you’re almost sorry it’s over. However you needn’t stop at making the quilt. Stitch up this colorful patchwork elephant to match, using up the left over scraps. New Moms will love the combo for the nursery!

 

Jelly strips or 2 1/2″ strips from colorful scraps make up this quick quilt. If using yardage, use leftover fabric for the elephant, or match up fabric with mini charms. This sweet set is bound to become a keepsake for your little one. I can’t think of a nicer addition than this patchwork ellie!

The elephant and baby quilt are inseparable and make the perfect gift for new moms and toddlers too.

Make the patchwork elephant as a stand alone project using those piled up scraps for a fun project. All that is needed for the ellie are 80 x 2 1/2 inch squares of colorful prints, ribbing or cording for the tail, black embroidery for the eyes and about 11 ounces of fibre fill for the stuffing. The elephant is 12″ x 9″.

This adorable pattern is available for purchase.
