Lucky the Elephant!

So the other day I was hunting around the web and I came across this cute little elephant tutorial. I spoke with the seller and she agreed to let me review it!


The above image is the seller's image. I am a little sketchy when it comes to buying sewing patterns online, but I have to say that this pattern's instructions were extremely well written and easy to follow. The only trouble that I had was the box feet. I finally gave up and did regular feet and I also added a little tail and hair bow. Below is my little Ellie :]


It is not exactly the colors she used but I think it turned out cute. Another difference that I did is that I didn't attach the whole ear to the body I just sewed the straight area and left the ears floppy :]


The only thing that I didn't like about making the elephant is that you are not allowed to sell your creations online. The only thing that you can sell is everything else besides the pillows. I understand why she doesn't allow it and I respect it, but I like to be able to sell my creations :]
