Wow, I can't believe the detail of the 3d clothes, how did they do that? I wanted to get even closer and look at seams :)

Have you had the opportunity to "walk"into the Valentino' s virtual museum?

 you have to install the program in your computer and then...let the magic begins!

as I spend hours in this museum I think it would be just fair to share it with you.

I hope you will enjoy this piece of dream

@Anne Field, what a good job you did on your Steampunk lady!  I'm looking forward to seeing her companions as you add to this line.

If I actually sat down and just worked instead of doing a little bit here and there between my other work...The outfit didn't take more than a day. And probably not the whole day. I did use a few pattern pieces (the mini skirt was one, the shirt was actually a sleeveless shirt I added sleeves to) and then I thought about how a bustled skirt looks and guessed at how to make it. I don't know if I did it the "right" way, but it worked. The hat probably took 45 minutes to an hour. I had to do some trial and error as I have never made a hat that large before.

This is really cool Anee, how long does it take to make an outfit like this?

Thanks so much! I had a blast making this doll and am already thinking up my second (and have a lot of the materials). Not only is it really interesting being Victorian (which I LOVE) but not bound by Victorian rules. And my husband is really into it so if I make a whole series of them he will probably like them all.

@ Anne

This is just...plain...simply STUPENDOUS I absolutely adore steampunk and one of my lady (Lizbeth) is patiently waiting for me to come closer to my sewing machine.

Anne, she is awesome!!!  Job well done!

I finally finished the steampunk style doll I have been working on off and on for awhile. She is my first full repaint, has cut and restyled hair and all of the clothes are my original design.

@Andy good for you! I feel irritated when I do everything by hand. Usually because it will still need some alterations for me to be happy with it and I don't like my hand sewn seems. Yours are beautiful though
