Meet Nellie

Nellie the Elephant packed her trunk
And said goodbye to the circus
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump, trump, trump
Nellie the Elephant packed her trunk
And trundled back to the jungle
Off she went with a trumpety-trump
Trump, trump, trump

Isn't she sweet I made her on the weekend.
This is her with her ferocious look.
I took her to work with me today and we made her Practice Manager for the day, she most probably did a better job than me at times.
She is a Melly & Me pattern. The Pattern is called Ellie.

Nellie is adorable. Tell Mel he's turning into a bag snob, but he is still too cute.
