Hi quilting buddies!
Ahhh, the lazy, crazy, hazy days of summer are over and it is time for the “littles” to go back to school. August doesn’t contain any holidays that are celebrated in the U.S.; however, I’m pretty certain that many parents are celebrating that their children will soon be back in school!
This month’s elephant has already started studying to get the year off to a great start AND he even remembered an apple for teacher on this first day of school!
The background fabric has been in my private stash since 2006. Although I had several other choices, I love the way the crayons complete the theme of this block!
The block pattern is available to purchase for $3.50 USD, right here:
If you don’t want to wait for the monthly pattern release, or if you’ve missed a few of the previous block patterns, you may purchase the quilt pattern with all twelve BOMs here!

Elephants All Year Quilt Pattern
The pattern packet includes the applique layout templates and pattern pieces for all twelve elephants, along with instructions for the pretty pieced sashing. Finished Size: 28½ ” by 37¼ ”
$20.00
If you’re just joining us, you can catch up with the elephant blocks by visiting our 2019 BOM page!
Thank you for visiting our blog and happy quilting!
