    thanks... Well they are all differrent sizes. I guess the smallest is the German repro in green (short hair) she is about 16". Sharin and Tracie are both 24" and Kelly is the largest by far. She is wearing a 12 month size baby dress my GD wore.

    I made most of the clothes as well - but not all.

    How beautiful you are so talented! I love that you made all the dolls look like your daughters and made their clothes as well. Little 'spooky' looking at the girl in the tartan dress as it looks so much like me when I was a child!!!! My father was Scottish and there was always a lot of tartan around in our family! Thankyou for shareing I have loved seeing these.
