Lynn I just use my eye.. I roll out a small piece of fondant into the leg shape hold it to the body to see if it looks the right size, if not I add or takeaway a bit of fondant and try again. It's all trial and error and you will in time be able to judge sizing, so hang in there xx 🥰
Hey there! I just want to say I loved this tutorial, I made 2 little Bichon's at once with this tutorial, but out of polymer clay as earrings. I had to replicate someones dog and even with a red bandana! I'll be posting them on my Instagram (@mylittlelunchbox) when they're 100% done (In the oven now) So thank you! FYI your video was fun to listen to you and I enjoyed how you kept laughing, good stuff :)
Monica R Wow!! That's amazing and I'm so happy that my tutorial helped you and even more happy that polymer clay art uses basically the same principal ... oh I'll check out your Instagram xx look out for me xxxx
