Two winters ago, I went on a doll dress sewing frenzy! Sewed for Barbie and Sydney Chase(Tonner). Sewed them all by hand. I have all sorts of fabric, trim, etc. now, but not the urge to sew.:-(
Love your furniture!

If you click on grey arrow in front of "attachments", it will show a clearer image.
Had so much fun doing these things. I have a few more, but don't want to show them all at once, since I only have a few pics saved on my puter.

Thankyou, Diane.
THAT is cute! Love the fabric! Did the hat also come with the outfit? PJ looks good in it! I think it is fun to dress the dolls according to season or holiday. A couple of years ago, went to TJ Max and found Christmas ornaments that were little sweaters. Also had some that were Santa tops or bottoms. These fit the dolls to a 'T'' and was able to make a nice little Christmas scene with a few of the dolls.

I think I'm calling it a night over here.
I was wondering about the broom but forgot to ask. Why i never thought of making my girls a broom is beyond me, ha! I will have to make them a broom for next year. Now that gives me an idea.....how hard would it be to make a mop?:| Hmmmmmmm thanks for giving me seeds for thought and barbie plot:^O Make barbie mop her floors!! Ooooo, she already does not look too happy. She is standing right here, giving me the ole side-eye stink-eye:-p
See ya later and a goodnight to you, Diane. Been fun chatting.

if you click on my last pic it is a link to the listing
seller made it with fabric rolled around the tip of that white stick, sewed and secured it with a bow.

That's pretty cool. Nice to see all the individual pics of the items. She did a very good job and used real leather too, I see. The fabric for the broom looks familiar as I have a hair scrunchy with individual ribbons of same fabric attached.

I don't recall exactly how much I paid for the sweater ornament at TJ Max. It wasn't too bad of a price, otherwise I probably would not have bought it:^O The santa inspired ones(I remember now) I bought at wally world. They were on sale for a buck a piece.

That is a pretty barbie! Some playline dolls are pretty and there are a few I do intend on keeping simply because I like them. How is her hair done? Looks neat from the front. Really like the outfit.
I had to get that pink tux too. I put it on this blonde repro flocked Ken. Suits him just fine. maybe a tiny bit big for him, but he is handling it OK, LOL.

Hi Diane!
Finally recognized the pink and black belt that is on your pink Barbie. Now I can't remember the name of the outfit it goes to:_|
Love the sweater on teatime Barbie. Looks like Francie's "Bridge Bit" #1279 from 1967.
