These are my wife's granmother's roses. I took the pic in the summer of course. I actually uploaded a pic of them several months ago but I think this one's better.

My wife and I took a walk this afternoon around the apartment complex where we live. On our property there are a number of miniature roses which are currently in bloom.
Miniature porcelain artwork featuring an original illustration imprinted onto the surface.
A small hole on the top of each one makes it ready to hang.
This dress is made from a pattern in the Miniature Crochet book by Roz Walters. It's 1:12 scale patterns.
Mine doesn't fit the doll I had intended it for, but it will fit my other doll I think. One of these times I'll get photos of the dolls I am knitting/crocheting for. If it doesn't fit, I'll just make a little wire hanger and display it instead.
Crochet with Collade UK yarn, sadly they're out of business now.
Today I was introduced to the miniature Mexican watermelons at a farmer's market. I thought it was interesting because they taste nothing like watermelons. They are firm, crunchy and the inside is sour. They are actually Mexican cucumbers. I love the idea of growing them next year in my garden. It should be fun.

A special order for my client's daughter's birthday! Made a miniature cake version of her yellow dollhouse :)
Goofy pizza, party hats, plates, OJ, Donald Duck bill, Minnie plates and spoons/forks.
Again, there is supposed to be a Mickey plate, but you have to open the package to get it.
Fork/spoon characters: Mickey, Minnie, Pooh, Stitch, Scrump and Thumper?
The St Annes Miniature Railway is situated in the busy seaside town of Lyntham St Annes. The line is more or less rectangular, running through the sand dunes. Trains are operated by either a Severn Lamb Western diesel or a steam outline built by Austin Moss using Severn Lamb parts. Trains run through the tunnel/stock shed at the back of the circuit.
An entry in the miniature garden class at the 2012 Philadelphia Flower Show. I don't remember the exact dimensions but it was close to 12" x 18". Loved at the great details!

The miniature of the warship Vasa.
Vasa was built top-heavy and had insufficient ballast. Despite an obvious lack of stability in port, it was allowed to set sail and foundered only a few minutes after it first encountered a wind stronger than a breeze.

Tramore Miniature Railway, Waterford 11th August 2013. It opened in 1973. Trains are pulled by a MK1 Severn Lamb Rio Grande steam outline.
This miniature is a superb depiction of the Mass of Saint Gregory. It shows Pope Gregory I (Gregory the Great) celebrating Mass just as a vision of Christ as the Man of Sorrows has appeared on the alter in front of him, in response to the Pope's prayers for a sign to convince a doubter of the doctrine of transubstantiation. Saint Gregory is shown kneeling before the alter holding up the Blessed Sacrament and wearing red, blue, grey and white vestments, his Papal tiara sitting on the white alter cloth beside an open Missal (or Breviary). Behind the alter Christ is seen rising from the tabernacle held in the arms of another man. Behind the Pope an acolyte in blue and white vestments holding a lighted, long poled, torch. There is another person in blue behind the acolyte. The image is set within a gothic church that has a green, pink and beige tiled floor, a red curtain by the side of the alter and a window with a view to rural countryside. Stood against the wall, behind the acolyte, is the ladder used to nail Christ to the Cross and probably also the lance with which His side was pierced. The miniature is surrounded with a narrow, red, border.
The overall size of the miniature is 88mm x 58mm (3 1/2ins. x 2 1/4ins.).
Next up, rounding and backing, the process of...well, making the spine round. Back in the little press goes the book!
