Shareb Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 That's it! My job here is done! My McQueenie Gypsy Vardo is completely FINISHED!!!!! Given how bad I am with soft furnishings and clothing, I even think I did a reasonable job of those!! Maybe....just maybe....I'm actually learning and getting BETTER at minis???!!!!! I am soooo stoked with this....I absolutely love it! Now to load up pics to the McQueenie website. Thanks all for your support and encouragement during this project. It was well worth the time and effort I put in. Major thanks to Karin for my gorgeous Gypsy - Hester! Plus major thanks to Holly for the clothing pattern and for your continual support during the dressing process!! (I feel like I'm receiving an award.....) 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why thank you...thank you very much....! Typically we always see things when we've done the work which may not be glaringly obvious to others! In this pic I can see the roof isn't sitting properly so I had to re-shoot a few outside shots to send them to McQueenies! 45 minutes ago, Debsrand56 said: Woo hoo! Congratulations!

That was the fourth blouse which finally worked! I have the three tier skirt UNDER the other as a petticote to which I added lace. I decided the other colours were too bright. The bolero is simply the 'Ribbon' I bought. I cut out the pattern which worked perfectly and then sewed it closed under her arms and attached a bead. Getting the head scarf right was hard! And I could finish off her skirt a little better at the bottom. But overall I'm really pleased! Thank you for your help! 3 hours ago, jbnmini said: Well done, indeed! Absolutely beautiful!
