This elephant is from a Cynthia Roger's pattern titled "Matriarch". I still need to make a stand for it. But first I need to hide it before the family comes....it is intended for a Christmas present.

Hey, Concho Valley, Joy.....I didn't know there was a valley around San Angelo....thought it was all flat.

Thank you for the kind words. They mean a lot to me.
