{pink & gray pachyderms}

Baby Girl West's momma

I'm so excited to share my 'Pink {and Gray} Pachyderms' quilt that I made for Baby Girl West due in October.  I used this quilt pattern and loved how it turned out!  


My top secret project revealed at the baby shower.
Elephants were the star of the shower's decor.

The only change I made to the pattern was that all of my elephants are facing the same direction.  I plan on using this pattern again.  So many possibilities - simple but graphic!


My first attempt at using a pantograph for quilting.

I didn't know that elephants were being considered as a possible nursery theme when I chose this quilt pattern for Baby West.


Love this elephant!

I love the touch of green in the quilt and the cozy flannel on the back.  I had the pink and green dot that I used for the binding in my personal hoard inventory.  I love how it ties in the front and back.


My love note to Baby West

Baby West's name hasn't been officially decided and so I decided to quilt the information in the quilt instead of a label.  It's a tiny message of love from Grandma to Baby West and includes dates and locations.
