I finally have finished Jenny's quilt. Her baby shower is in 9 days so it's just in time. I'm very happy with the finished result. The gray zebra stripe is very complimentary to the quilt. Of all the quilts I have made this is the first one I have given a name. I call it "Packy and her Posies". I hope her little one will cherish it for years to come. I have been working on another baby quilt for Ashley and I will be posting those pictures soon. I need to have this next quilt done in 7 days and I don't know if that is possible. I will have to kick it into high gear.

I designed this pattern last summer while camping and finally got all twelve elephants made. Now I will get to work setting them together to form a baby quilt for a little girl. I had planned on putting it together with just strips of the white background and 4 block squares of the colors from their ears but that didn't look right so I added pink blocks to form flowers in the corners and although it was a lot more work, I am very satisfied with the outcome. It really made the quilt top more girly and was worth the extra time spent on it. The end result is a good start for my New Year's focus on accomplishing great things!
