    There are so many different giraffes in quilts. It would help if you could identify the one you are thinking of. Here is a link to a Google search on giraffe quilt images:
    https://www.google.com/search?q=gira...=giraffe+quilt

    If you click on that, see if you can find a photo of the giraffe pattern you are looking for.

    Other questions: Is it a single giraffe or a family of giraffes? Is it childlike or sophisticated? A lot of giraffe patterns are applique; should we rule out applique and stick with pieced or paper pieced?

    Edit: I found this 1-day workshop for a giraffe pattern (scroll down to find the giraffe):
    http://janetfoggquilts.com/ScheduleAndWorkshops.html

    Edit 2: This one is a foundation pieced giraffe:

    Prism99, I looked at those two patterns and they are not them. This pattern has 3 left facing standing tall paper pieced giraffes. Thanks for looking.

    Ok. Here's one where 2 of the 3 giraffes are facing left, but it's not paper pieced:

    Here's one from Quiltmaker magazine:

    I saw this pattern too but since I have so many magazines, I have no clue which it is.

    Sounds like the quilt shown in the Paducah photos named Tom, Dick and Harry by Jackie Evans...may be an original and no pattern available yet...opened The Quilt Show newsletter dated May 2 and saw this one in the preview of quilt photos.

    Family of Three pattern is in Quiltmaker magazine in the Jan./Feb. '16 issue. It is a pieced pattern, not paper pieced.

    I didn't find the giraffe you are looking for but I love the zebra on Janet Fogg site I have never seen her work before.
