The elephants. They are coming.

I can't stop with the elephants. I just got this elephant fabric in from Japan and cut it up immediately. I spent today quilting them and sewing them up into bags. I'm in love.

They will be in the shop once I've cooked dinner, perhaps in an hour or so.

And here endeth any mention of boxes for socks in the near future. Quilting and crochet coming soon!

    Lovely fabric! I like that there's an occasional one with its trunk up.

    I have quite an elephant collection, started when I was a kid. Most of them are packed away now, but I still do love elephants!

    I'm here asking myself how many boxes for socks would be too many? They are gorgeous.
