My daughter really loves her dolls so much. She really treats them as her friends, and I know that even if these dolls don’t talk to her, literally, they give my daughter that feeling of comfort and affluence like a true friend can offer. ;)Chris Jefferyhttp://www.doll-clothes.com/american-girl-18-inch-doll-clothing/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259558187936840360.post-51101867466133866002012-09-12T15:01:48.298-04:002012-09-12T15:01:48.298-04:00Love your doll collection, and especially the quil...Love your doll collection, and especially the quilt.

(may even be bits and pieces still in the scrap basket somewhere.) i was wondering the same thing as quilting corner; will you be posting the pattern? <br />i think your doll collection is charming too. <br />i never really liked the harder forms of dolls but who can resist a soft rag doll~!? i've made a few and hope to make more in the future. my daughter thinks they are so primitive that they're scary. maybe i need practice . . . i've recently subscribed to a primitive doll magazine that somerset studios prints. you know some of the dolls within those pages really are scarey~! but i still love them.<br />there is something about the process of creating a doll that sort of makes one feel a bit overcome by the specific 'personality' of each as it comes into being. almost a feeling of channeling i think. <br />when i try to explain this to my daughter she looks at me with wild eyes and says that she now understands just why the dolls i make are scarey. <br />i guess it does sound quite strange . . .<br />oh well. i still like creating them and i understand why you love your wonderful collection~!!~<br /><br />:-)<br />libbyQlibbyquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03360109482795842401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259558187936840360.post-73758869318409275852012-08-27T07:54:09.630-04:002012-08-27T07:54:09.630-04:00Love your headerLove your headerFrançoisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16520579721229830065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259558187936840360.post-22750960169019018782012-08-26T23:05:12.592-04:002012-08-26T23:05:12.592-04:00I adore the variety and charm of your doll collect...I adore the variety and charm of your doll collection.

Did you make a quilt a few years ago with dolls that had different dresses but they all had arms that went straight across (horizontal) - kind of primitive? I have a photo that I saved but now I can't remember whose blog it came from...seems like you.

My daughter and I loved the American Girl books. I thought she might want Samantha because she shared the name or Felicity who also had red hair. No, she wanted Addy. I always loved Addy's bubble gum pink dress. She had the best story, too.<br />Somehow, there is honesty and wisdom in the older girl doll's face.
