I'm so glad to hear you are enjoying stitching her, she was fun to design too. I just love watching people's wips of my designs come to life! About those beads...yeah...I likes me a bit of bling...sorry about that! LOL
(BTW, if you think she's taken over your life...you should see what she did to mine! )
So after putting her down for a long time I had some free time today and picked her up. She was on my floor frame but we've had workers in and I've not had the floor space to work on her. Took her off the frame yesterday to give her wash and I swear to god she speaks to me lol!!!
Finished her corset today and the shading on it is insane!!! I can't stop looking at her boobs lol!!!
Here's a full shot of her
Hopefully get some more time on her soon! Need to get some extension poles for my Q snaps, she's a tall girl and I need to keep the excess fabric out of the way and the covers I have on my frame are too small to hold it all!!!

She is looking very regal. Love the colors.
(I have the same problem with the extra fabric when using the qsnaps. I just sort of role up the extra fabric and stick it in the cover. Let me know if you come up with something better.)
I love the 3D effect of the necklace and the other gold threads. You are doing a great job.

As to q-snap covers, the tutorial on the web is great, and the comments mention the directions for other than 8" sized covers so that you can make one that will fit whichever one you have. I've made one for the 8" q-snap and plan to make one for the 11" set I just bought.
I found that according the the directions, 33 x 7 (for an 8" cover) is sometimes too wide and the next one I made was only 5 3/4" wide. This worked better for me and my hands and still allowed enough room to tuck extra project fabric up into.
