Yes, it was the boy’s birthday this weekend – he has now reached the very grown-up age of four years old! He feels he is very handsome, and I am sure he would want me to show you his photo – so here he is …
What a poser! And in honour of the great day, I’ve created a new applique design for you – based on a mid 20th century children’s colouring book – four marching elephants on their way to celebrate Ben’s great day!
The free Marching Elephants pattern (picture at the top of this post) is available HERE for you. Hope you had a great Easter – rather too many eggs consumed here I feel …
