New Stuff

Guess what? I was at a thrift shop yesterday (looking for some cheap Halloween goodies) and I came across Kit's Pajamas (the blue ones) for... guess how much! $5!!!! I couldn't believe my eyes! There was nothing wrong with them; they were just missing a button on the pants. But who cares when they are so cheap?

Also, I finished my dress (and my doll's, too) yesterday! They are black with a pink ribbon around the waist. They are too cute! I can't wait to wear them to AG Place! I will take pictures of them ASAP.

PS- Do you think that I should get a new format for my website?

Trick or Treat!

Hi Everyone! This year for Halloween, I'm going to be a witch! And next year... (I know... I'm already planning for next year!) I'm going to be Lucy (from I Love Lucy) when she wears a feedsack dress. It is going to be so funny! I'm going to buy burlap from a fabric store, and make the dress. I am so excited! What are you going to be for Halloween?

Happy Halloween, if I don't blog sooner to the 31st!

Baking

Hey everyone! Kimi here! I just wanted to tell everyone about an 'incident' that happened to me the other day...

I was in the kitchen (in my special apron) and I was attempting to cook a cake. I wanted to surprise everyone at FPAfG! I got everything I needed out- flour, sugar, etc. I poured everything in the mixer and turned it on high. I guess I forgot to read the instructions for that part... the instructions told me to turn it on low, not high! Before I knew it, the wet dough was everywhere! I couldn't believe it. It was such a mess!! So, I spent all day cleaning it up. Everyone else helped me to clean, thankfully. I wouldn't have been able to do it all without them! Afterword, Felicity (an amazing cook) helped me to bake some cookies. They turned out great, and tomorrow I plan to give them to everyone at the FPAfG!

See you all later! -Kimi

PS- In case you don't know what Girls of Many Lands is, I have a picture in one of my first posts of them. They are very pretty dolls. I don't have anyting that is Hopscotch Hill School, except for a white board, but they were poseable dolls that were ~10 inches tall. They were all friends at a school that took place today. Thanks for voting!

For My Birthday

I know it's really early, seeing my birthday is in December, but I wanted to tell everyone my scheme. I am really excited for it! I decided to go to American Girl Place and have lunch there. I love AG Place, don't you? Anyway, I'm going to make matching dresses for the doll I'll bring- Kimi- and me. I bought some black fabric with grey swirls on it... and I'll spice it up with a pink ribbon to go around the waist. I am so excited!

Really Pretty Doll

A couple of years ago, my great-great-aunt gave this doll to me. Her name is Eliza and she comes with a certificate. You can see it by her feet. I tried to take a picture of it so you all could see it, but it came out blurry. Anyway, here she is. She has little bloomers, bows, tights, and shoes.

This is what the certificate says:

You are the proud owner of 7003-0,

of which 2000 pieces were created by

Delton Products Corporation. This doll is duly

certified as being #634 of this series.

New Outfits

Hello everyone! I finally got the camera's battery to be charged, so right away I took some pictures. Here they are:

Here's Kimi, my Just Like You doll. I made the shirt (and got the pants at the AG store) and it was really hard. The pleats were so tiny, they were tough to sew. I think she looks like she is right out of the 50's!

Here's Julie in a very spunky yellow and white polka-dotted tunic. (She came in the pants.) It was really easy to make, and fun, too!

And last but not least is Rebecca. This is the dress she wore for Yom Kippur. I added Felicity's sash (from her summer gown) to finish the outfit. Doesn't she look dazzling?
