For “E” you get a tutorial in pictures. An Elephant Neck Rest Pillow is the final product.

  The piece on the right is the ear. You can use same or complimentary fabrics for the front and back.

Be sure to clip curves for a neater finish.

Leave an opening when sewing right sides together for filling your elephant with stuffing. Hand sew opening closed when satisfied with the loftiness of your neckrest. (Hint: you may want to use the eraser end of a pencil to poke stuffing into the trunk or legs.)

Can you imagine another animal as a neckrest? I chose elephant because our family is notorious in these parts for our “White Elephant Party” each Christmas.

Here’s an oldie but a goodie of one of our gatherings.  Enjoy
