What was your inspiration?

I love Victorian designs. They are so timeless.

What are you most proud of?

How the flounces on the green outfit worked out. Took me awhile, but I finally got them "just right". Also the pleats on the skirt--not easy to do in crochet, but I think I got a realistic look.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Patience on some of the more intricate design elements such as the flounces, and the "pleated" skirt....wonderful effect, but takes a bit of work.
