Clueless Quilter

Here is a link to a 'free' real cute paper pieced block from Piece by number. You can enlarge it for a center block or alternate several with either traditional pieced blocks or perhaps a plain block that has bees on it. Lots of possibilities!

Feeling your pain! My granddaughter wants a quilt with an elephant on it....with no tusks. She is 17 and a very "cool" teenager, I might add...so I don't want it to be cartoony but looks like that will be sort of what she will have to get. Frustrating to figure out what to do, what kind of background (she wants green). Yet it needs to be "cool". Good luck with the bee. Looks like some cute ideas above.
