Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I've never made a bed size paper pieced quilt, but I always thought that once the blocks were pieced together, that you could remove the paper. I really love the elephants, it's going to be a great quilt.
If you are at all afraid of removing papers, maybe just leave the paper where your next join will be. that will prevent the stretching. Once they are sewn together they are not going to stretch unless you way over press. Its going to be a really sweet quilt.
I've used the "Snail's Trail" pattern for entwined cat tails, but using it for elephant trunks is just amazing! I love this quilt!

What an adorable quilt! I always pull paper off the seams as soon as I sew them. That way paper doesn't get enclosed by sewing over them in the opposite direction. Then I pull out inside papers once a block is fully surrounded by seams.
