I am playing with Barbie again. I just love playing with my dolls. I love the Retro ones you know. Almost everything in my Barbies closet has been handmade. Not by just me. I also found a few locally and purchased some online. I hope to find more. I do love the vintage factory ones but certain ones and of course they are expensive if your looking on Ebay. I am using some vintage patterns to make my clothes. Yet I am finding I should make my own pattern cause I have ideas sprouting up all over the place. I am currently trying to make my own stocking/leggins for her and some underpants cause she has none. I know! You would think to include that in the box? She had on a bathing suit on but still also an evening gown. (??) I have had such little play time. I have just been through Thanksgiving, 3 birthdays, a baby shower and side work. And we shall not even mention the mommy and housewife work cause that is always TOPPING the list. Busy and I am thankful!
