Age is Irrelephant - 50 Hours

 Since the deadline is looming ever closer, I've been pretty focused on Age is Irrelevant lately. I'm still greatly enjoying working on these gentle giants and making good progress too!

So today, I reached 50 hours working on this project. The head of the second elephants (it's the male in my head) is pretty much done, eyes, ears and tusks. There still is some trunk left to do, and then it's pretty much all legs!


I had to move the hoop after taking this picture, so I tried to take a full shot too, but it turned out a little blurry and by the time I noticed, I had already started working on it again - sorry! Still, to give you an overall idea where this is going:

As he is much slimmer around the legs then around the ears, I think the next ten hours should get me pretty far. Probably not finished, but hopefully close!

What a beautiful design. You're stitching is beautiful! This piece reminds me of the elephants at the zoo near home. -Andrea

Fantastic work on the elephants!

That is one of the better elephant charts I've seen. Most of the ones I see are too cutesy. This one is fun but the elephants are very realistic. You're making great progress on it.

Loving watching the progress on your elephants.
I know this was a long time ago, and it's long since finished, but it doesn't stop me commenting! :)
