Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Here is Wonky the Elephant. My girlfriend and I made him for her one-year-old niece’s birthday. We call him Wonky because he’s a little off kilter; for example: I embroidered his eyes before he was stuffed, so they are both a little off center, and all his legs are different lengths and widths.
Thanks Member Marionessus who’s project “stuffed elephant” inspired and helped with the creation of Wonky.
My girlfriend’s niece was too distracted by her birthday party to give sufficient attention to Wonky, but I’m sure he’ll be well love as she get older.
Sorry that I only have this one picture I keep forgetting to photograph Wonky when he’s around.
