The green elephant from my previous post is feeling very much at ease in his new home, the new owners were so kind to send me a picture.  Since there are 3 small children in the photo I won't post it here.

some repeats and some new ones...

made for BIL's girlfriend (see post below for details)

I started this one first on Phildar Coton 3 but it turned out too small, then I made the one in the previous post with Aviso.  That one went to a new home en I finished the Coton 3 one over the weekend :)
