Oliver is aged 1 and my Great Nephew. When one of my Sewing Group turned up with this delightful Elephant I knew I had to make him.
He measures 13" high and 14" wide from the tip of his trunk to his tail! The back of his lovely big ears are lined with red fabric as are the bottom of his feet and his ears are lightly padded.
First of all I had to make roughly a metre of fabric from 2 1/2" squares before cutting out the pattern! He was a very hungry elephant and enjoyed 400 grams of toy stuffing! Would I sew him again, well?? Oliver is visiting with his Daddy tomorrow and I hope he likes his new friend.
