Hard to see here, but she has a ring with skeleton keys around her neck, and jewelry hanging from the corner of her bag. And a little lace undergarment peeking out above her blouse.

And this is the embroidery on the back of her vest. She is only about 11 1/2" tall.

Very cool!!! Yay, I'm so happy to see someone else doing fabric sculpture. Tell me, what method did you use to do the face?

This one is muslin with an embroiedered face and just a teensy bit of needle scuplting. Plus, her head is made in 2 sections which gives her a nice dimenssional chin. The head of the dwarf and wizard (haven't found where I put him yet) are made with nylon pantyhose and have much more needle sculpting.

Hehe. How cute!

So, I'm looking at her cuffs and I'm thinking that you have WAY too much time on your hands. Are those actual buttons or just tiny stitches to make it look like them? And is that a little ring on her finger?

You're being put in the "maniac" category along with Bobby. :D

Well, I've done a couple of wizards and a monk and a couple of Santa Clauses. I did them several years ago, before I had internet access and therefore had more time. :)
She did have a name, a character I played in D&D once upon a time, but I've forgotten it.
My favorite is one of the wizards who wears a dark velvet cape with gold trim, has a wooden staff topped with a skull, and carries an antique book of spells. Wish I could find him.

The buttons and jewelry were made with seed beads. I found a tiny brass charm of skeleton keys and she wears that around her neck on a gold cord, for lockpicking.
