There are so many different giraffes in quilts. It would help if you could identify the one you are thinking of. Here is a link to a Google search on giraffe quilt images:
https://www.google.com/search?q=gira...=giraffe+quilt
If you click on that, see if you can find a photo of the giraffe pattern you are looking for.
Other questions: Is it a single giraffe or a family of giraffes? Is it childlike or sophisticated? A lot of giraffe patterns are applique; should we rule out applique and stick with pieced or paper pieced?
Edit: I found this 1-day workshop for a giraffe pattern (scroll down to find the giraffe):

Edit 2: This one is a foundation pieced giraffe:

Ok. Here's one where 2 of the 3 giraffes are facing left, but it's not paper pieced:

Tom, Dick and Harry by Jackie Evans
Sounds like the quilt shown in the Paducah photos named Tom, Dick and Harry by Jackie Evans...may be an original and no pattern available yet...opened The Quilt Show newsletter dated May 2 and saw this one in the preview of quilt photos.
