Giraffe and Magnolias

About this pattern

This charming folk-art giraffe gazes out with soulful brown eyes and long fluttery lashes, her long neck and face built from a gorgeous mosaic of warm amber, burnt orange, and rich chocolate brown patches against a crisp white background. Sweeping branches of deep green foliage frame her on all sides, dotted with creamy white magnolia blooms with sunny golden centres that echo the warmth of her coat. It is a joyful, bold design that strikes the perfect balance between playful and elegant, equally at home in a child's nursery or as a striking textile wall hanging in any room.

🌿 Thank you for supporting a small independent quilt-pattern studio. Happy stitching - there's always something bright and beautiful on the way at WildbloomQuilts. 🌸

Every pattern in this shop is my own work, from the first line to the last page. I draw each design by hand as an original vector illustration in Inkscape, then develop it into a ready-to-sew applique pattern - every cutting line, every fabric colour, every template page and instruction. Each one takes time and a lot of care, and I hope that comes through when you stitch it.
