Third installment

Three of my girls, 1960s ponytailed Gotz with yellow eyes and lashes, a wigged slate eyed waif and Sally, another 1960s slate eyed Gotz, all in Dollydoodle girly T shirts over cropped leggings enjoying time on one of Alsager's children's playgrounds.



The 'Lilac Club' 1960s Gotz waif girls (Sophie, Miss Minxy, and Sally) welcoming Holly (a yellow crude eyed doll) as a new member.



Jac, a 1970 Gregor customised by Shelly enjoying some outside adventures whilst wearing his prized camoflauge T shirt and jersey shorts.



Finally we come to the 1970s Trendon sexed babies, warm and comfortable in their famous Dollydoodle best selling sleepsuits and little head caps with their distinctive knotted topknots.



Another couple of pages depicting those irressistable baby sleepsuits that keep them so warm and cosy (no midrift gaps to let the cold drafts in) throughout the long nights.



Two pages showing the cosy Dollydoodle SNOW suits which were made for the Emmy Dolls and co. the pattern of which is currently being perfected ready for the 2012 Winter Sasha baby production.



Back to night time and the Dollydoodle baby sleep wear. For those of you who haven't as yet bought one of these sleepsuits I can tell you that when holding a baby in one it is such a wonderful feeling, so soft and comforting to the hands.



Dollydoodle hoodies and joggers worn by Fritz (who by now needs no introduction as such!) and a 1967 Frido NP and 1960s Gotz waif, Miss Minxy just perfect for going 'out and about' and enjoying the environment.



Tons of thanks Sarah for these latest listings. As the song says, ...'Nobody does it better!'

Second installment of the book

1969 Gotz No-navel, 1960s Gotz wigged girl, Frido 1966 NP and a 1960 pale skinned slate eyed girl who have formed and enrolled themselves into a 'Dollydoodle Purple/Lilac Club' which rules that something Dollydoodle in purple/lilac must be worn to club meetings. The new Frido NP member just enrolling and hasn't as yet got anything in the correct colourway so has been allowed to come in her pale blue/white spotted leggings (the nearest that she has to lilac) today until her mummy can buy her something lilac.



Enjoying some late September sunshine out in the garden in their Dollydoodle shorts and T shirts etc are my Trendon wide faced 1970 girl with her friends, Sophie, Gotz 1960s slate eyed waif and 1969 Trendon wigged Gregor, Amy.



Annaliese, a Trendon 1970 re-rooted by Jackie Rhydstrom and wearing one of the new Dollydoodle girly T shirts and cropped leggings and Sam, a Frido 1968 Gregor in his Dollydoodle OOAK short sleeved hoodie and shorts enjoying the shade of the tree and shrubbery from the blistering sun.



My Christmas 1966 Frido developmental Christmas doll with another Frido 1967 NP waif in Dollydoole pink/turquoise jersey Summer wear. (Both as yet un-named.)



Here come the 'hoodied/saggy beanied' lads again. Luke, a 1969 Frido Gregor, Jac, a Trendon 1970 customised by Shelly boy, Sam a Frido 1968 Gregor and last but not least, the leader of the gang, Fritz, a 1960s slate eyed, sharp nosed boy,



How I love my days out at Llandudno! Here we see Jac, my 1970 Trendon Gregor customised by Shelly in his T shirt and board shorts on the West Shore and Ross, a Frido 1969 Gregor re-rooted by Jackie Rhydstrom amongst the fishing tackle on Conway Quay wearing a Dollydoodle OOAK short sleeved hoodie and Judith's 'posh' cotton shorts.



More of the lads, Matt, a 1968 tiny eyed Gregor Shorts in a OOAK outfit given to me by Judith for my birthday, James, a 1969 Frido in board shorts and T shirt and finally Luke, a 1969 Gregor in Dollydoodle cool and comfy Summer shorts, gilets, hoodies and T shirts.



Time for the girls who belong to the 'Pink Club' and have to wear some shade of pink when meeeting up. 1960s pale skinned, slate eyed and re-rooted with mohair by Bettina waif, Gotz 1960s slate eyed Gotz waif, Miss Minxy, 1966 NP re-rooted by Lisa Hartley and the pale skinned Gotz girl again.



Magnificent work with your listing again Sarah. Grateful thanks.

The Sasha Book that my daughter had done for me for my Christmas gift.

This is the first of four parts to this book but unfortunately the light from the conservatory windows shining on the pages doesn't do justice to the actual wonderful quality of the publishing.
Chon had decided that she would give me a Sasha book every birthday and Christmas and that we should choose a theme each time. This one is entitled 'Kendal's Sasha Brood, The Dollydoodles Fashion Edition' since I just ADORE Dollydoodles leisure wear.
Naturally Fritz, my 1960s, sharp nosed, slate eyed Gotz lad had to feature on the front dust cover in his now famous Dollydoodle OOAK surfing hoodie.



This is the very first prototype Dollydoodle's sleepsuit that was sent to me to try on a Sasha baby whilst Judith searched for one of her own. These are the very photos that I sent back to Judith to show her the fit. As you can see it proved to be almost perfect although some of the proportions were initially a little generous.
Trendon 1970s little black baby, Bea a 1990s customised Gotz Toddler and Irka, a 1990s Gotz 750 limited edition baby with enhanced eyes by Shelly.



Trendon baby, Little Stevie (given to me by Steve Kingaby for my 70th birthday present) wearing a limited edition outfit made especially for him by Judith.
1966 Frido NP re-rooted by Lisa Hartley and a 1960s crude eyed Gotz doll wearing Dollydoodle's hoodies.



1970 Gotz No-navel, 1967 bobbed haired Frido NP waif, another 1967 Frido NP with beautiful eye painting, and a 1970 wigged Gregor all wearing Dollydoodle hoodies and leggings.



'In the Red, Pink and White!' 1970 Trendon wigged Gregor, Fritz, a 1960s Gotz, 1960 Gotz crude eyed girl and a wide faced 1970 Trendon Gingham waif all looking very 'Trendy' wearing Dollydoodle Summer wear.



All my Gregor lads in Dollydoodle leisure wear. This is Judith's favourite photo of mine. She calls them 'The Likely Lads.'
Up until Judith's Gregor hoodies, joggers and saggy beanie hats appeared on the market I hadn't been very enthusiastic about the Gregor dolls but now I can't seem to buy enough of the 'lads' to wear the 'iconic' gear.
Ross, a Frido 1969 Gregor, with his newly rooted hair by Jackie Rhydstrom, enjoying a day out at Llandudno in his OOAK hoodie and shorts outfit. (I love the overall blue colour scheme here.)
My daughter likes these two pages the very best in the book.



My Trendon girls in blue!' A very pretty 1971 girl, Eline a 1969 re-rooted by Jackie and Belle,a 1970 Gregor customised by Shelly all looking 'cool' in shades of blue.



Tons of thanks to Sarah again for her invaluable help in listing the above photos.
The book continues tomorrow if you are interested.

Because of...........

Being unable to leave comments on mine and some other some blogs these days (unless using Google Chrome) due to a fault or changes with BLOGGER my daughter set up this other blog for me on Boxing Day http://kendalssashabrood.wordpress.com to run alongside this one to allow comments to be left and for me to eventually completely move over to there.

Super shoes for Christmas from Jean Jenson

These attractive black patent Mary-Jane style shoes arrived as a lovely surprise from Jean.
Many thanks Jean for thinking of us with this delightful gift.



My 1960 pale skinned Gotz girl with her mohair re-root by Bettina gets to try them on first with her Pinestreetstudio dress and Trendon Kiltie tights.





Secondly the 1970 wide faced Gingham girl in her new vintage-sasha Christmas outfit has a try on of these lovely shoes to see if they suit this outfit as well since I still can't find the boots.







My sincere thanks to Sarah for her continued listings for me.

A little Hallmark Keepsake School House gift from Auntie Dawn.

This cute little school house model looks more of a toy for you girls as I know that you all love playing 'school' especially when it's your turn to play 'the teacher.'



Now take it very carefully out of the box and unwrap the surrounding tissue paper protecting it. Oh, how lovely it looks. It is a minature version of Fisher Price's Play Family School introduced in 1971 that has taught thousands of children that 'playing school' is always so much fun. Thank you SO VERY much Auntie Dawn.



Place it on top of it's box so that you can see it better.
Right, it says to first lift part of it's roof. Can you do that?



Then ease the side wall with the windows on down carefully so that you can see what is happening inside.



The tiny bell will ring if you move the lever at the top of the bell tower. This lets you know when school starts and finishes and when it's lunch and playtime.



Look there's the door at the front where the children go in and the clock to tell you when it's time to start and finish school.



What can you see inside? Is their a teacher and some children? 'Yes!' Are they sitting at their desks? 'Yes!'



No Brownie points at guessing just who has listed these photos yet again for me! Yes, our wonderful Sarah W. Once again, thanks a mill. Sarah.

A super gift from our Auntie Sarah Price

What has your Auntie Sarah sent you all then? Oh, a little mechanical city track. How wonderful! You've never had anything clock work before.



Be very careful when you start to get everything out. Put the track pieces all together.



That looks a smart little wind-up car. You must be so careful when you wind it up that you don't overwind it and break the internal spring.




You have to work out now how to connect the track together rather like doing a jigsaw.



Use the photo at the back of the plastic box to help you decide which piece goes where.



Oh, well done! You are getting them linked up in the correct order.



You have to decide just where on the track you are going to put these road signs.



If I were you I'd put the parking sign close to the park or lake where people need to park their cars so that they can get out and enjoy the environment.



Now wind it up very carefully.



Put it carefully on the track now.



Right! Get ready, steady and now let it go!



Many thanks to Sarah who is STILL listing these for me.
