‘Benjamin’ the friendly giraffe

Something different this month.

A dear friend has a new grandson – so what better excuse to sew something different. ‘Benjamin’ is named after the baby and was created from a ‘Melly & Me’ pattern using Kaffe Fassett fabrics from my stash. He has felt eyes and black wool for the mane and tail.

I also have been working on the quilt – Antique French Lace, adding the other 4 designs in the centre border. Lots of cutting and preparing the circles before they are appliquéd into place. Only one more to go, then the centre border will be complete.
