One of my projects this weekend was the "Peanut, The Wee Elephant" pattern from Joelle Hoverson's book "Last-Minute Patchwork + Quilted Gifts". It was intended as a baby gift but I, um, clearly did something wrong, as he's not supposed to tip over like that. His trunk is too long, and the underside is a complete mess. I looked online for pattern errata, but all I found was zillions of other people raving about how easy the pattern is. I'll give it another shot & see if I can't figure out what my problem is...I suspect this version will eventually be carted off by my youngest niece, who won't care that her aunt's sewing skills are not quite up to par.
