    I am expecting a great-grand child any day now. Mom is getting ready to deliver. The parents have decorated the nursery with "Dumbo" the Elephant. The new grandfather to be, my son, asked that I make a Crib Quilt. Had a bit of a problem finding elephant fabric. Finally found it in a web site from an Oregon distributor. When I received it, couldn't figure our what to do. It is called "Elephants on Parade" and sorta stripped. So here is my "Elephants on Parade" crib quilt, 45 x 60 inches.


    I also made the Christening Blanket. Will show just a corner of it. Will that baby be outfitted or not?

    Elephant quilt is very sweet! It will be a hit. The christening blanket is lovely too, looks like a lot of work. I am sure both will be treasured for many years. Good job!
