Henry II Elephant

From Valori Wells´ pattern Prudence & Henry comes a new cute and cuddly Elephant.

He´s quite easy to make and there´s not so many pieces to cut out, which is nice. 

Made from an old fabric I got from my husband's grandmother. The ears and eyes fabric is newer and from my own stash. Trying to use up some of the fabrics I've been collecting for the last few years (so I can buy new ones :-))

Who can resist this adorable face? 

Henry makes an entrance

This is Henry the elephant, from the pattern showed in the previous post: Prudence and Henry, by Valori Wells. If strictly following the pattern instructions, Henry should be made from flannel fabric, but I decided to go with quilting weight cotton instead. I also made a different kind of tail than suggested.

Henry looks pretty good as a sofa cushion and is very comfortable to rest your head against.

He can stand with some support.

He has cute flapping ears and a very long trunk.

And he is super huggable. 

Henry will be very missed when he moves to his new little owner at the end of the week.

Privious creations: Mr Frog

Cute and cuddly :-). Fabric from Stoff&Stil. Pattern bought on eBay (Contained a small sketch of the frog, but you had to draw the pattern yourself. A bit tricky.).
