This challenge was SO worth it! I have never taken on a miniature before, but this won't be my last time! Such a gratifying process to see the finished product revealed in such a lovely space! All in all, it took me a full day to make the dress! I think it took Chris a full week to make the form itself! Massive Thank you to Chris Toledo for collaborating with me pin this!

An idea for next time: You could make the real life dress that matches the doll's. A side by side and differences in the processes would be amazing!
Oh my gosh Yes 👗❤️
Awesome
Hi there. Do it Do it Do it! A nice blue dress that is after 5 look. You don't have to go as small as the wedding dress, Barbie size is just fine. I have got to see it. Please make them PLEASE! By the way can make it out of velvet!? So sorry for being so demanding. Looking forward to seeing them if you dare. See ya later sweetie. Stay safe out there. Take care and God bless.
That would be stunning

Legit every time I’m sewing and I press a seam, in my mind I’m like “press that seam flat & beautiful” lol this dress is stunning & looks so romantic in the miniature room 😍 great job, I love your channel ❤️
My faveourite line in his videos
Yes! Me too 😍
Me to 🥰
I do the same thing now! We won’t discuss how I used to cut that corner on some projects😂
saaame
I'm a headdress maker and seamstress . And all i can say is that The best way to learn is by trying ( and fail ). I've learn everything by myself . So no art school nor workshops
Absolutely.......its a crime to never try.
Self taught? That’s a talent in itself! Awesome!
That math part was amazing to hear. I too failed algebra. I crochet and have to calculate how much yarn or string I need to make a piece. Stitch ratio to form is a must, BTW: I've also been doing my own taxes since I was 18 as a single parent, it helped me earn extra money during tax season. Later in life I became a successful production manager...numbers were a necessity there too. You hit it right on the nose, if you're doung something you love, the math part will come naturally.
I feel like there's a difference between practical math and practically applying it vs school math and school math problems.
I'm a bomb-ass business student but fuck highschool math classes man. 😅
@@Gingersnaps_the_pumpkin_kitty agreed. I’m a sociology student and an artist (I bring this up because it demonstrates that I am a visual learner, but am in a stats based degree), and there’s a massive difference between things like stats based math, like inequalities and matrices, geometry, shit like that. I feel the issue is tangibility, as opposed to learning method. Like, if you’re not able to put your finger on what this skill set would be used for in real life, and in tandem with learning methods (like if you’re a visual learner, as opposed to a verbal learner, and a text based learner). Like what the fella said; if you’re learning something for something you love to do, it helps gap that bridge on tangibility. At least, that’s what I’ve understood, don’t take this as 100% fact
Love this!
I used to make dresses like this for my dolls when I was a kid. Not barbies but stuff like second hand Rose Petal Place and MLP Megans - which were roughly the size of your dressform. I used fabric scraps that I found (and sometimes Kleenex!) and used hairspray to keep the pieces in place. I work as a civil designer now but love to design as a hobby
Same! I used plastic bags because they worked well for big puffy dresses
I love ceatives!!
I love miniature objects! I would love to see more clothes this tiny, it’s adorable! Good job 👍🏻
I LOVE IT. I think a real bride would also go mad for this dress. I'm so done with all the slim wedding dresses. Can't wait for the over the top dresses again.
Lot's of love from the Netherlands, Daniëlle 🙋😘
OMG that's too cute. I love your work so so much! I just printed your jacket pattern on patreon planning to make my husband and myself matching jackets, I'm so excited , I can't wait to give it to him. He's always complaining I never make him nothing LOL
Yesss can’t wait to see it
O realy i want to see 😃
How did it go
@@tiktik6367 My mom was diagnosed with cancer right after I started so I put everything on hold in order to take care of her.
I used to sew Barbie dresses as a kid, this is beautiful!!
I have been watching the Runway series, and I am in awe at your growth over the years. Yes I will be buying the latest jacket pattern for my honey!!! Bravo sweetie!!!
🖤🖤🖤
got the pattern, have black and shiny gold zippers, found some taupe/black denim, now I need to be brave and figure out how you "bleached the fabric!
Love this!! I made dresses for my Barbies when I was little. I wish I had access to your talents back then. For your next project would you consider another miniature dress made from vintage hankies? Most have tiny delicate designs that would look fabulous in a miniature dress.
I sewed dresses for my sister's Barbie and loved the challenge of fit and doing tiny hand sewn stitches. Then I was told I was too old to be playing with dolls. Is it any wonder that having had my play truncated, that today I have no sense of style or color?
Play is essential!
My grandmother loved miniatures. A coworker made her a dollhouse when she was in her mid 60"s. She and I spent hours redoing the rooms when I would visit. There was even a yearly miniature show at a local event center that *we would buy things for the dollhouse or just to have. I was in dance, she had a miniature tutu, point shoes, hanger, tiara, and coat rack in a glass case (like Belle's rose). I have the doll house and still have my ballerina costume. And of course my memories w her.
The clothing that you make is always so beautiful
Totally agree that it’s WAY easier to learn something when it’s relate to your life or something you love. Also, that dress is amazing!! 😍
I love miniatures. Your mini wedding dress is beautiful.
Working in miniature is hard! You made a timeless dress, love it!
I love EVERYTHING about this video! It’s so inspiring 🖤 are we going to see the dress in full scale too?
I love the Niagara Smooth Finish! The dress is soooo cute 🖤🖤🖤 I’ve loved miniatures since I was a kid.
Wow, this is stunning, despite being miniature. Well done. I hope you are chuffed with how it turned out. You should be!
What fun!
This is how I started sewing as a child. I didn't like to play with dolls but I loved designing and making clothing for them & getting odds & ends together to build houses and decorate the interiors... hand stitching outfits of my own design for other people's dolls.
Working in miniature is an entirely different art in and of itself...
I love how you speak to your viewers. You appear to be so sweet. Thanks for allowing us to see your creations.
I've always loved drawing dress/clothing designs, and I love to put my imagination into something I love. I'm not the best at drawing but I'm getting better. I watch your channel for inspiration and ideas (which has helped me alot because you are so creative and open) thank you for making videos and please keep putting out shorts- they're my favorite!
Gunnar! The way you hold a pencil! 😂😂😂 this came out gorgeous! And you learned new ways of doing things along the way! I love when I’m working on a project and learn something new. I think every project we make we learn from it! I can’t wait to see what you create next! 🥰
Gunnar! The whole math thing is so true! I recently learned that I can use pi in my sewing! Pi! That 3.14…. number. Pi is used to calculate how much fabric is needed to go around a circle - like if you’re making a barrel-shaped bag.
I love everything you do ❤️
I have followed you since project runway. You are such an inspiration to so many! The world needs more role models like you. ❤
This makes me so happy as a miniaturist and a doll customizer!!
Challenges ideas. Let me think.
•Replicas of the wedding dresses Disney princesses wear in their animated films and books
•Dress inspired by a pheonex
•Make up a superhero and create something for him/her to wear. Try to make it unique and fit it his/her personality and his/her powers, abilities, and skills. See if you can outdo Edna Mode.
•Outfit for a steampunk pirate that is young, very good at math (especially probility), funny, has two dogs and a cat, for her crew, timid around new people at first, is so bad at pirating that the reward offered for her capture is a penny, lost her parents in a Bermuda Triangle in the sky formed by a hurricane, built her own blimp out of spare parts, and can be a bit of a fangirl.
•Create an animal inspired dress of your choosing.
•Create an inexpensive dress that could be worn in a masquerade ball.
•If there was a civilization in Antarctica, what kind of clothes would somebody wear?
•Create an outfit for a book character
Just a few suggestions. I look forward to whatever you do next.
Also love the miniatures
&, yes, of course, been subscribed for months... well, since I began regularly watching.
Loving the idea of a mini inside the perfect mini room.
Fabulous as always!
Since you ask,
I suggest a Spring Awakening mini dress, trimmed with tiny jewels, embroidery, or both.
&,
If course depending on how you feel h how popular mini format is, perhaps a seasonal series of tiny gala level dresses for your mini model
Stunning! I love that dress! Keep doing what you do, life-sized or miniature, I love them all!!
Omg i love this, i want to try it
It’s absolutely stunning! You are absolutely right about lifelong learning.
That the most beautiful wedding gown everrr
The energy is to die for 💖👏🏽
It gives me so much hope to read about all the self taught people in here. It makes it seem like becoming a seamstress is genetic.
I love your positive attitude and words of wisdom. You are so inspiring. It blows my mind every time you start to drape it immediately looks like something Fabulous!! This type of skill was almost lost. I applaud you for doing your thing. The fact that you allow us to glimpse into your world shocks and thrills me. You are so beautiful i legit cried just to see this today.
I definitely needed a good dose of Gunnar today. Being stuck in ICU with double pneumonia really sucks. Thanks for the great video, G!
I hope you heal quickly😊💖😊.
Hope you feel better and get out of there soon
Thanks! It's a slow go, but I'm getting there.
Sending you love!!!!
Hope are in recovery mode now!! Pneumonia is nothing to fool with!! Blessings!
Love the end result, beautiful (mini) gown!
And after the day I just had, to hear you go *I don't know what to do* made me feel oddly better. (I even laughed. Not at you, but because i realized other creatives have the same issues I do when we'repit of our comfort zones.)
Girl I’m a hot mess off camera hahaha! I promise you I struggle all the time😂
That was AWESOME!!! Love the dress!!! And the house room was AMAZING. The little dress form was adorable. Thank you for sharing both worlds.
So very beautiful, Gunnar. Just stunning! But that is what always happens when you have created anything. Perfect crafting and beautiful expressions are hallmarks of your creations.
I am excited for this video because I do crochet and I do scale for my records but I model mine to a Barbie size. Can't wait to see what I can learn.
GUNNAR:
One small, short fifth of the way into watching this - YOUR BEST VIDEO YET -
The vulnerability and "sheer" courage you teach and inspire us with human connectedness, providing spark to the fuel of our creative imaginations...

TRUE + REAL = BEAUTIFUL
thank you good man
I love your videos. You're so much more experienced and talented than I'll ever be. Your videos and designs have been a real joy
A general tip I was told when I started sewing miniature clothes for Barbie dolls (mostly Barbie Looks dolls) was to respect the scale by keeping to finer (thinner) fabrics when sewing multiple layers. Also, watch areas like sleeves and waistbands. Too much bulk in these areas on a 6 or 12 inch doll can ruin the look.
Please do more of the doll sewing but I would personally love it if you used the good old, all-American Barbie as your model. Thank-you. ❤
Professional designers or tailors who are used to working on bigger forms find it hard to work on miniatures.
I started on with miniature clothings and I can remember how my mum used to say that she can't understand why I make miniatures clothings when it's so difficult to work on. But I found it easier, and at times more budget friendly, coz I couldn't afford to buy too much fabric and spend it on dresses which I'm not gonna wear.
On the other hand, you can find extra fabrics to design anything in small scale. Sometimes, you just go to tailor shops, and ask them to give you scrape fabrics for free. This is a fantastic way to explore your creativity for beginners, who don't have the budget yet, and trains you for the future.
I'm speechless. I love it, this is just stunning!
Beautifully done Mr. G!
Awesome little dress!! I love your channel and would love to see more fuel videos of your work. What you do is amazing and it absolutely floors me how you can take a thought , and a little bit of material combine it with your sewing skills and creat something one of a kind beautiful. The world needs more people like you. God bless take care and be safe 👍🍀❤🤗✌
Omg. You did an amazing job. I’d love to see you do this full scale. It would be beautiful.
First of all, how beautiful they were together! Like I’m literally screaming inside, it was stunning!!
Second, your nails are so pretty! Love the pink on you! You look great!
That red sparkle at 1:56! I can't wait to see you make something with it.
I actually found a vintage Barbie doll clothes pattern the other day and wanted to give it another shot. I too made some as a child and chose off scale fabrics then. I remember making a seam three stitches long. Gonna give it another try. These days I do altered couture sewing that maybe incorporated into these tiny clothes. Love the starch idea.
Obviously, now you have to make the life sized version of this beautiful gown :-)
Really enjoyed this video! It reminded me of all the wonderful hours spent making doll clothes by hand when I was a child. Admire your talent and enthusiasm for a craft I love.😊
This dress to scale should be your next project!🥰😍 It is absolutely stunning. Love it, love all your work.
This is a wonderful collaboration. Bravo 👏🏻
I would love to see another mini dress!!!
My precious maternal grandma (who was born in 1893, may she rest in peace) made dresses and suits for my Barbie doll when I was a child back in the 1960s. Sadly, I lost all of those precious outfits when my mother (may she also rest in peace) threw out everything I had stashed in the basement of my childhood home when I moved out, after the basement flooded 3 feet deep.
My grandma made the most gorgeous tailored mint green boucle suit for my 1958 Barbie (the one with the short golden-blonde bubble/helmet hair). Miraculously, that doll was NOT in the basement when it flooded, and I still have it to this day. I also have Barbie’s white plastic dressing table with working drawer and attached oval mirror, bench, and red shag rug from that era. I cherish them and the wonderful memories they carry.
I would pay you to recreate that suit for my Barbie doll. Would you consider that?
I absolutely adore you, Gunnar. Keep up the great work and fabulous videos. You have inspired me to start sewing again.
It looks gorgeous 😍 I have two headless figurines with wedding dresses on and I would love to create something else for them. The seams of the satin is in some places coming apart. The rest of the bodice is glued onto the form. They are not pinnable though.
That dress is stunning, and since I love 1/12 scale mini's, I love this
Bravo! I love your mention of Geometry for all the math haters out there that think they will never need their high school (secondary school) math education. The final product was beautiful. Kathleen O'Neill
So beautiful! I've been watching your videos for a while now and I absolutely love your thought process behind every project you take up, your positivity really makes my day. Love from India 🙏🏽
Miniature artists use lots of clips & tweezers & needle nosed pliers are a must! But I do love the dress! It's beautiful 😍
Stunning!! Both of you are such amazing artists!!
I’ve never wanted a ball gown at my wedding UNTIL I saw this one OMG
That looks so pretty! I could never make something like that.
I've never made a dress that is 6". However, I have made tons of Barbie clothes. I even took on a project for extra credit in my High School History glass. I took about 6 of my old Barbie and Ken dolls and dressed them in historical fashions. I made a Saxon man, a Civil War dress, and a Sideless Surcoat. There was also a Juliet dress. I wanted to do an Elizabethan male costume but couldn't quite manage the ruff and coat. I can't remember the other costumes, but I do remember that I was having trouble with the hooped petticoat. I finally found an idea in a magazine. This was long before the internet, so I just struck it lucky. I soaked it in sugar water. High on the sugar content. I put it to dry on a gallon size jar. It was all very hard to do the sewing.
I love this project and your creative problem solving. The gown is stunning, and I love it in the warm light of the miniature room.
Amazing and lovely! Wonderful job to you both! It is a beautiful and touching scene when the dress and scene are together.
I love to see how creative he is and absolutely am inspired by him
The dress is absolutely stunning 😍 as a miniature, now imagine creating it for a bride !!!! I love your creative vision 💕
You have such amazing talent. Thank you for making the world more beautiful
I love this video! My hobby is sewing ooak Barbie dresses so I made a recreation of my husband and I dressed in our wedding gear to sit on a special table on our reception. As difficult as the dress was, I gotta say his suit was one of the hardest things I have ever done! Tailoring men’s clothing on such a small scale is damn near impossible! Talk about pressing seams flat and beautiful! Haha!
I totally understand what you were going through. My kid wanted custom outfits for fairies the size of Polly Pockets and let's just say it was so hard. Idk how anyone makes miniature looking outfits look like little fashion runway outfits. You did an amazing job. I can't wait to see more.
You unlocked more viewers, miniatures lovers!!! Please design more doll dresses!!!!😍 that is so stunning!!!
I love your openness and honestly through this process. So many channels only should the end product that is successful. Even though your dress was so amazing in the end, I really loved seeing your process and it inspired me. Thank you.
I agree with the learning if it’s an interesting topic or doing something you love that’s totally true
This is gorgeous I feel like I want this in my closet for no other reason than to just go to the mall and be the most extravagant human being I can be😍💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💖🙏🏽😂ABSOLUTELY STUNNING
You are so talented! I’ve always dreamed of owning a mannequin and sewing my own designs, however I lack the talent, know how, and creativity. Your ideas are amazing and I’m so glad I found your channel!
That dress is beautiful. You did an amazing job.
This is the cutest and the most beautiful thing ever!!!!
As a miniaturist I was all up in this! I have a miniature iron and we find crazy tools and have to think outside the box. I love the dress! Great job!
You knocked it out of the park with this one, Wow!!!😍❤️👏🏼
Absolutely beautiful, and apologies to the late Vivienne Westwood(who I adore the work of) but I actually think this is a design I would choose over the “Carrie” wedding dress! (Shock! I know!🤯Because I’m a die hard SATC fan!) but with the constraint of making it to size, you did a fabulous job!!👏🏼 Love watching your videos, more more more, please!!
I’d love to see you do some 90’s looks, some more vampy lace goth looks(but with a little softness), and I would love to see you do more Mugler inspired looks, with your own twist! A sculpted Blazer Dress, I want everything!!!😊😂❤️❤️❤️
Watching your channel is like the little girl in me living her dream, as even as a young child I would get through so many notebooks sketching dresses, wedding gowns, all sorts & my Nan thought I would be a Fashion Designer, but I ended up in Management(which I loved & thrived in, BUT I wonder what my life would have been like if I had gone to Fashion college instead of business….dreaming now!) but your channel means I can live vicariously through you,. My Nan was a dressmaker & also made wedding gowns also👗.
So a BIG Thanks & Cheers to your Gunnar!🍸👑❤️😍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💐
❤️Love all the way in England, UK🇬🇧🥂
I'm in love with your ideas
LOVE the nail color you’re wearing 💙 LOVE watching you create
Omg the dress turned out BEAUTIFUL 🤩
I have just sat here for all 6 plus minutes WITH MY MOUTH WIDE OPEN IN SHOCK!
I’m not getting married, cripes, I’m not even in a relationship , but oh my stars!
We so need this content ..in a world that can be very negative I just adore losing myself in the creative genius you possess and am super grateful to have found your page.
That turned out beautiful!!
Can you imagine how many yards of fabric it would take to make that dress full scale? It's beautiful and the attention to detail stunning.
Fantastic job!
Your glitter nail polish is everything!!💅🏻🤩
Wow I love watching longer version of of your videos. ❤
I love the way you express your self🥰 you inspire me!
You inspire me to sew. I learned on my own as well a d continue to learn watching you. From the East coast, thank you!
I have no idea how to sew, but I LOVE your videos!!! Plus, your voice is very soothing. Your videos relax me. Thank you for your videos!! Xoxo.
Breathtaking!
Gunnar, you do not disappoint! 🥰🥰🥰
I must say, I am super impressed that you allow your beautiful kitty cat anywhere near your material, tools, etc. Please pass along some kisses from me.
I am curious, what do you do with the normal sized outfits?
I so hope you do some more miniature collaborations in the future!
I have pretty much thrown in the towel at 53 in the hopes of wearing a wedding dress.
I am considering doing a Muriel's Wedding run!! I just have to get gutsy enough!
If you ever feel like making a plus size, purple wedding dress, I would LOVE to see it!
Love and kisses,
Carol
OMG I love this dress...and your videos...and your nail polish...and your whole vibe. I am LIVING!
BRAVO!!👏👏👏 This was so epic and I loved it so much! U should do a mini dress series!! Oh my gosh YAAAAS mini dress series PLLLLEASE!!
Miniatures have so many unique challenges, and especially textiles! I love this challenge so much.
This was a stunning project. Having made doll clothes, making something so small is infinitely more challenging than making a full size project.
I think this is my favorite thing you’ve ever made
I don't even sew, but really love watching all your work. You are fantastic 🥰
Wow the dress looks soooooo beautiful. So lifelike. I luv miniatures they sooooo cute.
Your work is always so beautiful! I love 💖💖watching you create. Thank you for another wonderful video!
