    Tartan, that was quick! I love your improvement and it will greatly increase the longevity of these. I got the fabric cut for the blankets but don't have the yarn for the hair! They are so cute.

    I hear ya .. they look at you like you have just grown another head .. LOL Everyone has their own ideas and we are all unique; which is a most wonderful thing-patterns change/materials change due to our own unique perspective on things. LOL

    Jingle, it might surprise you what dollies made by you would mean to g-dtrs that age. I used to get a new doll every Christmas as I was growing up but the only one I still has is the Raggedy Ann doll my mother gave me the first yr. I was married at 19. It's lived in my cedar chest every since which seems a little silly to me now. Got to put it out so I can see it.

    What a sweet little dolly! I received a similar one that had potpourri in it at a baby shower.
