A friend of mine is having a baby boy - and I felt that the mere fact that I owned this monkey fabric required me to make an elephant out of it.
I ended up ripping out the right ear twice before I got the stitches sufficiently neat and the positioning even with the other ear. I'm happy I did - a bit of lopsided is cute and quirky - but too much just looks careless.
Pattern from Last Minute Patchwork + Quilted Gifts.
NOTE TO MYSELF - When the pattern says "sew belly pieces together" this does not mean sew all the way around those two pieces, it just means from the hash marks for the opening to the corners that are marked "front" and "back" - please remember this next time.
