One project done and one started

This week and next week I have the pleasure of having my surrogate daughters with me so my sewing time will be restricted but it is for the best reason.(long story short, I was a surrogate mother for a gay couple and gave birth to 2 girls, Sara 14 (top picture)and Kiko 9 Bottom picture left. right is Leandre my own daughter)




In the last few days I was able to finish  my fractured image apple and will add it to my pear and maybe also add a leaf.






















And finally my bigger project will be the baby elephant. Here is part of the process :) I have no idea how many piece this baby will have but I can guess....many.

  1. beautiful girls you have there. Wow what an elephant this is going to be, so admire FPPing but can`t get my head round it to do. No doubt you have been busy playing with your new puppy since arriving home, hope he remembered you all

  3. Wow, Yanicka. Love to see both the graphic apple and the completed patchwork side buy side. I wish there were more pictures and close-ups of your fabulous work.
    And that elephant - PHEW that is a BEAST. I am sure you can tame it though :-D

  8. That apple and pear are amazing! I'm pretty proficient at FPP, but I've never designed a pattern. What talent you have! Thanks for linking up with TGIFF @ A Quarter Inch from the Edge!

  9. You are an amazing woman! How cool that you get to be a part of the girls' live, too. The apple and pear quilt is really neat. Can't wait to see the elephant come to life.
