She's coming along so nicely, looks fully evolved to me. But please, get those pins out of her eyes, it makes me cringe. My cat once stepped in my eye, tore my cornea. That was the worst pain I've ever felt - and yes, I've had two kids!
Very cute! But do you really think you've got your acupuncture technique right? I'm sure the needles aren't meant to go in the eyes. Perhaps you ought to read the handbook again.
How gorgeous!!, The tone of grey is perfect and that dress is very classy for an elephant!..I'm with Lucy about the pins...he he, I know it is just so we think you are really devilish.
The problem with being the 51st commenter is that everybody else has already said it all- LOL! I, too, admire the wavy trunk. I think I remember another charming elephant from your card - I love it, but this one's trunk is even better! I just spent OVER AN HOUR traveling back in time on your blog. I made it to November 2007 and my eyes gave out. I saw some very cool things - I just love the doll popsicle - and laughed a lot. Thanks for the great visit.
an elephant voodoo doll??? what did an elephant wearin' a dress ever do to you??? hmmmm....
very cute... whatcha callin' it??? Lissa is a nice name! LOL and I am built like a elephant, even have grey bits - my skin from not seeing daylight cause my mean husband made me go back to work and my hair, cause the stress of having three teenagers has turned me grey...
Hi, I am Jodie Carleton. I started this blog in 2007 and somehow a tiny business grew from it. So now when I am not at my regular job I can be found happily making toys in my sewing room or swearing at the computer as I try and write the patterns. I am obsessed with foxes, pinnochio, Red Riding Hood and mechanical toys- actually pretty much any toys.
Say Hi if you have time, feel free to email me with any questions you have, I'm always happy to procrastinate by answering emails.
These tutorials are here for you to have a try. Please feel free to make any number of these items for your own use or gift-giving but please do not make items to sell using these instructions.

Hi Jodie!
I love your little heffalump! The dress fabric is really cute and quirky. Is pachyderm the name of the fabric you've used?

My word verification is "darlinge" how fitting.
I love elephants :-) In childhood, I had a cuddly one - in place of a bear :-)
She looks just like Flora, from the Babar books!
She's so lovely! You're so creative.
Very cute! But do you really think you've got your acupuncture technique right? I'm sure the needles aren't meant to go in the eyes. Perhaps you ought to read the handbook again.

How gorgeous!!, The tone of grey is perfect and that dress is very classy for an elephant!..I'm with Lucy about the pins...he he, I know it is just so we think you are really devilish.
Oh. So. Cute.
Oh, she's beautiful. And her pretty dress. A pattern for this may inspire me to overcome my softie-making fear.
I love her!
i love her too? will there be a pattern available?

I'm sure that cute nellyphant is benefiting hugely from the DIY acupuncture you're applying there. ;-) x
