I fell in love with your Doll Baby (does she have a name?) the very first time you showed her. And her being dressed for different holidays and seasons is so delightful. This new outfit is just darling and so perfect for Spring and Easter.
hugs, Karen

Oh, I agree that smocking is really amazing! I wouldn't have the patience for it! Very nice spring colors and overall look. Please make sure your adorable dolly doesn't eat all that candy at once, she'll have a tummy ache! ;-D

I've also bot baby clothes for dolls at the thrift for my DD and DGD's over the years as I don't like sewing fiddly little things. Lots of cute things there altho I think your smocked outfit is the nicest I've seen in a long time. I have 3 dolls I made altho consider them GDs' toys and haven't used them in displays. Maybe I should altho all I need is more 'stuff' to play with in displays! LOL

Thanks, purplemoon & luckygal...no, she doesn't have a name...I just call her "Babydoll"...you're good at naming, PM, I remember lynn's brass deer being named "India." Got a good one for Babydoll???

LG...no candy...those are dotted eggs are painted wood...had them for some time...cute little ones! Hope you do decide to play with your dolls! I said before I am not a doll person...but you all got me going with this holiday inspiration stuff! LOL!!! I emailed my SisInLaw & told her I would never make fun of her dressing her 2 fur-babies! LOL! Anywho, thanks for the comments! Think spring (and I am totally jealous that you are gardening, LG!)...and PM...that it's 70 deg. Ugh! Jeanne S.

Wow. I just love her and her new spring dress. I've forgotten, did you have a story to go with the high chair? It looks old.

What a sweet little dress. I love the smocking and that cute little bonnet. This is such a sweet idea having her in the little chair--and being able to change out her outfits and dishes for the seasons is just the icing on the cake! Luvs

Your little "Babycakes" (that's what DGD would call her) makes me smile every time I see her. Her new outfit is darling. Will she be in on the baby shower for Mo?

What size clothes does she wear? I would love to see if I could find some to send you if I have some of DGD out in the shed. I plan to donate them so would love to send some your way too. You always dress her so cute.

Your little Boyd Bear angel and dolie with bowl of eggs is so cute with her. Love the spoon like she's ready to dig in!

Thanks, OA, luvs & punk.

OA...the high chair I got at an auction many yrs. ago (for visiting G'kids) & refinished it...on the floor below it is an old "booster seat" I also got at an auction (those g'kids grew up on me!) LOL!

punk, "Babycakes!" & luvs, "icing on the cake!" LOL! And I must say, "no, thank you, on the baby clothes." I think my DH would think I'd lost it if I start getting pkgs. in the mail with baby clothes to dress a doll! LOL! But, thank U for the offer...please donate them. My space is limited also.

Am loving seeing SPRING on this forum & St. Paddy's vignettes! ...Jeanne S.

oh now I have to dress mine. I have a real cute black baby with the sweetest curls. I have her in a gown and covered up on my chair. No name until I was given a pillow and put it next to her. It says Do Not Mess with Texas...so now she is called Texas. LOL. Luv Yours.

Jeanne, no problem and I will donate the clothes. DGD had an Apple Bottoms outfit yesterday and it was so blingy she looked like a doll herself. One of my friends couldn't get over how well she is always dressed. I told her that's what happens when a family only has one little girl in it.

I have saved your pictures to show the little girls weekend after next...they will get such a kick out of your lovely Dollbaby. She looks like "spring chic" to me!
Hugs,

Jeannie, I always enjoy the baby doll and her changes. I would call her Holli, short for Holiday forum. That smocking is so pretty. I used to smock a good bit, way back when, as a matter of fact, I just put out some eggs that I had smocked. That dish of eggs is just darling. It looks so springy, and let me tell you Spring is calling my name. I spent the whole weekend in the yard.

Jeannie - Is the doll your GD's? Perhaps she should name her? Do you keep her out all of the time? That's so nice of you to do that for your grandchildren. They really must enjoy you changing her for the different holidays!
