My ideas always start with a color palette.
I thought I might try something different. My last several creations have been bears in pink. I had some fabric I hadn't used before and I really wanted to try an elephant.
I named her Suki and she is 7 1/2 inches from the base of the cupcake to the bobble on her hat. Her arms and legs are string jointed for movability although she is lightly sewn to her cupcake pincushion. She is made of Corriedale and Merino wool.
Suki is available for adoption. If you are interested in adopting Suki, please send me an email.

Hi Jennifer! So nice to see you back! I was just cleaning out my old inbox and found a msg from you regarding this precious little elephant. Do let me know if she's still available!
