My Elephant Parade quilt was started the same year as the Life of Plenty, and both were quilt-alongs where the blocks were revealed gradually. As a result, since I worked on both quilts at the same time, at least for a few months, these two quilts became related in my mind. And the Elephant Parade became like a pushy brother who kept wanting attention every time I worked on Life of Plenty.
I've been spending my fifteen minutes of quilting time sewing down applique - on Elephant Parade, as well as old prepped but not sewn down circle blocks, new circle blocks, and anything else I can find. If it needs to be sewn down, the machine is ready for action.
Block 186
I had this block turned another way when sewing, but it is turned this way for the photo op. Who knows how it will wind up in the quilt!
Block 187
This one is to copy the porthole blocks Tanya is making with Liberty fabric. This of course in no way looks like her blocks, which are neat and beautifully made.
