Looking for: Little Elephant quilt pattern pattern by Red Brolly
 
Does anyone have the Little Elephant quilt pattern pattern by Red Brolly? It must be out of print. There are pictures of it online, but I haven't found a source for purchasing it. I believe the designer Bronwyn Hayes was from Australia.

Next question: Would you be willing to part with it?

Thanks

If you can't find the pattern, I think I would be pulling out my graph paper and make my own. It reminds me of Sew Fresh Quilts patterns and they were very easy to do.

I can see 4 pink squares and 3 white squares sewn together for the feet, The back part of the body is 1 pink rectangle, which has a snowball corner, sewn to a red polkadot square which has been snowballed on 2 sides, then a pink strip snowballed on the top (to match the snowball on the butt :)) a rectangle that is sewn to the background at a 45 degree angle, and finally a narrow strip for the trunk.

It's a really cute pattern. Good luck with your search.

I don't have this one. If you wanted to consider a different elephant pattern, this is a free pattern from Windham Fabrics. I have not made it yet, but I will one day. The picture is from the Windham website.

If you don't find a copy of the Little Elephant Quilt pattern by Red Brolly, there is this free elephant quilt block from Milk and Honey Quilts.

I've done the search engine on Fat Quarter Shop, and it's simply not there. It's an adorable pattern and I'd love to make one also. Let's all hope we can find one! (or two)...LOL

The pattern on this site can be used to make a Mamma and a baby elephant and it has the bird included. It would be very easy for you to adapt it to the photo you show.

The blog post showing it at the Fat Quarter Shop was from 2015. I'd be looking at Etsy or eBay for the pattern.

If I'm not mistaken, the Red Brolly web site has been closed down. Her face book account from 2016 shows that she was going in for a bone marrow transplant. No news since 2016 shortly after that, that I can find.

There was a cup mug posting in the web archives, but couldn't find anything with the elephants.

Here is a blog where she made this quilt maybe she can help you.
