There is a miniature railway at Waihi station, and this is one of the engines that is sometimes brought in to run on the track.

First off, I definitely apologize for the not so great quality of the photos--my camera is definitely on its way out.
This little cutie is the quilt created just for me by Suzanne Hayes (CaryQuilter) in the Swap Til You Drop group for the June exchange of Anything Goes. It has fabrics in burgandies, rose, black, gold, cream and tan. The blocks are itty bitty pieced crazy quilt blocks with a black mottled sashing fabric and burgandy binding. Suzanne used a miniature decorative stitch for quilting and I think that is the perfect finishing touch for this little beauty!
I made one of Julia S Pretl hexagonal miniature boxes and felt it was a bit too big to be a miniature, so I made my own miniature version

This rosebush is growing in a pot on my balcony. The rose itself won an award in 2005, the American Rose Society's Award of Excellence for miniature roses.
There's a miniature railway near the canal (closed now for winter) so I took a side-trip down the tracks.
Miniature Lupine (Lupinus bicolor) a/k/a Bicolored Lupine. North Table Mountain. Near Oroville, Butte Co., Calif.
This little Chanel bag took *forever* to make. I had to quilt the leather myself, and I threaded the black thread through the chain by hand without a needle, because the links were too small.
And let's not even talk about making the tiny interlocking C's.... o.O My hands are so tired...
I applied a basecoat to the miniature for the "black" areas - the first coat is a dark grey that's about 3:2 black to white, applied with a brush. I went over it with a thinned black and intend to do a third pass once this has a chance to cure, since the really wet paint is cutting down to primer in some spots. The charcoal grey is visible on the base still.
Miniature taco preparation - lettuce, tomatoes, onions, salsa, sour cream, cheese and seasoned beef in 1/12th scale dishes for a dollhouse. All made out of polymer clay and presented on wooden dishes. These were made by Sarah of Northern Miniatures.
Heard some strange noise when I was walking by a car...after looking around I realized that the strange sound is actually barking of this miniature beast. He was very aggressive and wanted to bite my head off.
Luckily he was locked inside a car, otherwise I wonder what he would have done to me.
This miniature horse lives on a small farm across a country road from one of the high schools in the rural county where I work. He was very curious and moved from his water bowl quickly across his small pasture to check me out. It was obvious he was hitting me up food, but my lack of treats didn't make him leave.
