7. When I saw your subject title of Elephants on Parade, I thought maybe you were talking about the same pattern I am making for a baby quilt, actually more toddler size. I had been looking for more color ideas for it but now I see it’s a completely different pattern. The pattern I am using is from Under the Garden Moon, designer is Mindy Johnston & Amy McClellan.

8. Have a friend who makes these as pin cushions. They are adorable and have become a “must have” by many in our local guild.

   1. Does she make them full sized?

9. thankyou for the link to pattern, and Peter the elephant playing piano is very funny

18. Peter the Thai elephant playing ragtime and dancing with friends made my day! That is why we love all things elephant–what dear sensitive creatures they are.

25. I’m a few weeks behind on my podcasts and I just listened to you today on Pat Sloan’s show. I feel like I know you, even if this was the first time I have heard your voice. Kudos to you! And I do love this elephant. It would make a great scrappy applique baby quilt. And you could really have fun auditioning fabrics! Love everything you do.

27. oh my gosh, this elephant is so cute. I have no idea what I will do with one, but I have to make them. might take away from my quilting time though. HMM
