Finally got her done and she is on the wall and watching over me! Learned lots and lots putting this together - mostly what NOT to do, but she's family now!

She looks great! Love the glasses. I'm a little intimidated to make mine....no experience with paper piecing.

Grama Lehr 08-12-2011 12:51 PM

NICE!!! She's really a work of art!

Love the ribbon hair with beads and the glasses are great touches. Nice work.

With her watching over you, I bet you do not ignore your mistakes. :hunf:

leatheflea 08-12-2011 02:40 PM

You did great! I printed mine out and decided it was way more advanced than I. So in the filing cabinet she went until I get braver.

RenaB 08-12-2011 03:02 PM

DebraK 08-12-2011 04:38 PM

one of the best I've seen yet.

ChildoftheUniverse 08-12-2011 04:43 PM

I'd say more time consuming than difficult... little pieces and all! It was definitely a learning process. Thanks for looking.

ChildoftheUniverse 08-12-2011 04:44 PM

Oh thank you so much... she was fun to do.

0tis 08-12-2011 06:21 PM

She looks like a taskmaster - she might scare me just a little.

Painiacs 08-12-2011 07:47 PM

Awesome!!! Great embelishments...

Sylvie45 08-13-2011 04:12 AM

Very nice. I printed the pattern but haven't started yet. Did you use regular white paper for piecing? Or did you copy the pattern on to thinner paper?

VickyOH 08-13-2011 05:00 AM

Great job. Love the glasses.

glorcour 08-13-2011 05:06 AM

These "self" portraits are so cool. I get giggles when I look at them.

Well done!

I used Tailor Perfect Piecing sheets (8 1/2 x 11) for the first time and really liked them. Unfortunately, my printer would cooperate so I had to pencil trace the pattern pieces on the sheet. I didn't tear it off when I was done as it is a perfect facing and keeps the project crisp.

sewnsewer2 08-13-2011 05:37 AM

Love her! Love the glasses too, nice touch :)

KarenB 08-13-2011 05:55 AM

Very cool! I still need to work on mine. I have loved them all!
