Elephants🐘, Frida, & County Fair🎡

Three super fun quilts to inspire!!!
Quilt Info #1:
Maker: Missy
Pattern: Elephants from Laundry Basket Quilts
Size: 45" x 57"
Batting: Quilters Dream 100% Cotton
Thread: Glide--Cream
Pantograph: Alouette ⤵️ from OESD
I gave Missy a few options for quilting: jungle leaves, flowers, rainbows, and feathers. She chose the feathers and they look fabulous!!!
Isn't this adorable!!! Missy made this in anticipation of her 4th grandchild, a girl, due Wednesday, July 29th!
Missy used a great variety of Tilda prints--so sweet--all purchased during a trip to Germany earlier this year! 
They're so cute, I just have to show close-ups of them!
Missy did fusible appliqué along with machine buttonhole stitching. She trimmed the middle parts of the fusible web away, which was a smart move!
She matched them in pairs, so for every red floral elephant with blue ears, there is a blue elephant with red floral ears, if you can follow me!
The backing is this gorgeous Tilda print. Missy piece it, to make it wider, but you'd never know it. She carefully matched the pattern--the seam is about 4" from the right edge in the photo below. ⤵️
So sweet! I can't wait to hear the good news of baby's arrival!
