The Elephant On the Other Side

I decided to applique some elephants on the other side of my Elephant Pillow Quilt.


I free-hand sketched an elephant profile on newspaper, then cut it out and used it as a pattern to trace onto the fusible.  By making mirror images, I'll have elephants walking in opposite directions.




The background of the other side is a variety of solid colors, so I chose this print (used in blocks on the one side I already showed you) for the elephants.




Here they are, all fused down and awaiting a good edge stitch.  Each elephant is 10" tall and 17" wide.
