craftyhunnypie Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Can't wait to see her fashion sense! I'm only jealous! Her size would freak me out a bit though - she is almost human. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 It's the body. The legs and arms are floppy dolly, but the torso is like one of those resuscitation annie dolls you use for learning the kiss of life! Plus, she doesn't have eyes yet and SHE'S LOOKING AT ME AS I SEW HER CLOTHES!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Ahhh give her a face, a personality & a name - the poor love! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 Jeroma the Gnoma. She's Italian-Svedish and a gnome. Clearly. I'll sew her face on when I've done her hat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 Nope. Purple boots the same colour as the hat. Hopefully. More progression... Skirt (which was going to be pantaloons but I didn't have enough fabric. So he's now a girl!) Top... Gnometastic stripage... Goat ears... Face... Got to smother her in numbered pockets and make some boots. Maybe a pair of mittens. Then she'll be done! Still a bit frightened by her sizeness ...

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted November 18, 2009 Author Share Posted November 18, 2009 lol she's though i think she could be quite scary in the morning in the dark is she adult size or kid size she looks huge? She's about the size of Gail Porter and will have as much hair. No plaits. I like the ear and hat look. Makes her look much more cute and less scary. Hair makes her look too doll-like and therefore more real-like. Oh lordy, she's a big'un! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 Harlequin patches on the top... A bag for extra advent pockets... That head up close... A door, for scale, and because it's the only place big enough to hang her up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddie Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 She brings back memories of a house I went to recently, where, just inside the front door, there is one of those very realistic rubber men's torso things that boxers practice on..

Plum Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Oh she has such a lovely face not scarey at all. Love that bag. By the way is she modelled as a self portrait? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES You want Jeroma the Gnoma to jump you?! Plum - unfortunately while Jeroma and I share girth, we do not share much else in common. Oh wait - hang on... Nope - I don't have anywhere NEAR as many pockets... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted November 25, 2009 Author Share Posted November 25, 2009 Top: They are velvet pocket patches. And here she is - Jeroma the Gnoma! All she needs is a shoulder bag for the last handful of advent numbers, but she's basically done. The heart necklace is another velvet pocket. I don't think she looks as scary as she could have done!
