I bought this game years ago, and I finally decided to play it. Just by opening the booklet, I fell in love with the artwork. The game is just so amazing and Maria is such a wonderful character, that I just had to go for it. She had such a neat mix of period costume with a modern flair!! I made this costume with a few changes to the original design... adding more sparkle and glam to my liking ^_~. (hand painted designs, hand embroidery, and beading)
