DOLL COLLECTING AND COLLECTING, AND COLLECTING.......

It seems that Momma Cat has been collecting dolls her entire life! This is something that she passed on to Baby Cat too.  They've spent many hours looking for, buying, making clothes for, and even designing and creating their own dolls!

Last fall Momma Cat asked Baby Cat if she thought she was too old to get dolls for her birthday, and Baby Cat said, "You can never be too old for that!"  

After talking to Baby Cat, Momma Cat went online to the Disney Store because Baby Cat was talking about the Disney Animator Doll series.  Baby Cat really liked the Aladdin Doll. (Baby Cat's husband once dressed as Aladdin for Halloween, and Baby Cat was Jasmine)! So Momma Cat decided to surprise herMomma Cat sent Baby Cat a Baby Aladdin doll!

Doesn't she look happy?


 Now, Momma Cat is an impatient cat and just couldn't wait for her birthday in November, and she saw this doll on eBay and just had to buy her


October 20, 2015

She's an 18 inch Madame Alexander doll. These dolls aren't available in stores anymore, so if you want one, you have to go online.  Although, you can by new models on the Madame Alexander website.  I think they are a lot more attractive, and a lot more affordable than the American Girl dolls.  They can wear the same size shoes and clothes though, so there are many patterns available to choose from!   This doll is totally adorable now, but she came with a very silly hairdo, and Momma Cat thinks she needs some better clothes!  So she will be making her some!

Momma Cat liked her first doll so much she kept looking on eBay, and she saw this doll online a few weeks later, and decided to buy her for herself for her own birthday!

This is also an 18 inch Madame Alexander doll.  Momma Cat thinks she is very beautifulHer original outfit is not that interesting, so Momma Cat has been making lots of clothes for this dollShe posted one of the new outfits (crocheted Cat Suit) in her January post, but then she took it apart and completely re-crocheted it because it was extremely difficult to take on and off the doll! 

Hopefully, next time Momma Cat posts, she will have some completed outfits to show you!  Until then, enjoy some of the beautiful spring-like weather we've been having!

    1. These dolls wear the same size clothes that American Girl dolls wear, so the patterns options are almost endless, and so are the fabric choices! It's going to be a lot of fun!
