I attempted to post about dolls every day for a year. I came very close. Now I publish randomly. I love to hear from my readers.
| I made a little sun suit for Betsy McCall. |
| But I think I like it better on this older doll. |
| I think she's sweet. |
| Modern/Current |
| vintage |
| More vintage (1950's) |
| Even more vintage! Doll clothes patterns are a habit of mine! |
| This thrifted doll turns out to be a babysitters club character named Jessi. She is in her original outfit, but someone has chopped off her hair. marked: c1993 SCHOLASTIC INC. MADE IN CHINA |
| I thought, since the little nightgown didn't fit Betsy McCall, I would run her up one of her own, using the vintage one for inspiration. Not quite as successful as I could have wished. |
| I went to the flea market to visit my friend. I ended up buying this from her. |
| I thought it might fit Betsy McCall. |
| Doesn't she look sweet in it? There's a lot of overlap in back. |
| So pigtail girl got to wear it. It comes down further on her shoulders than I would have thought to be good, but I like it there |
| Sometimes, he knew... |
| ...valentine cards... |
| ...do get lost in the mail! |
| So, with the same spirit... |
| ...that made him try to fly a kite... |
| ...form a team... |
| ...and play a season of baseball... |
| ...or attempt to kick a football held by Lucy Van Pelt... |
| ...he checked the box and waited the mail carrier, faithfully. |
| Two whole months later, he finally lost faith, gave up and crawled .... |
| ... into the mailbox. Poor Charlie! |
