This is absolutely gorgeous!! The details are incredible. I love the texture of the "material", the buttons and the creases around them. The ballet slippers are wonderful also. Looks like they are just waiting for someone to put them on.

embossed pattern on cushion was made with a tablecloth bought from the hardware store. It is sold by the meter, is rubber lace doily imitation... very inexpensive...Ugly for the house... but great for fondant :lol: :lol:
