Sharon Camping made this hippo and everyone wanted to squeeze it! I kept saying it was a self portrait just kidding! It is so cute! I guess everyone wanted it : )






Alex kept saying I was goning to win !!!!! He was so so sweet! I think I won because he kept saying it!



The set up was a bit stressful but it all came together in the end!!!!! 
My design for the applique quilt

My Photoshop composite many months beforehand, this really helped me plan! The scale is a bit wrong however... oh well.

  5. Frances, do you know what patterns were used for the stuffed hippo and alligator? They would be so cute to accompany a baby quilt I plan to sew with the Safari Moon collection!
