I never had very many ready made clothes but my mom and grandmother made me many, many clothes. I had Ken, Midge, and Alan, Midges's boyfriend. My case had Barbie on the front, a large picture of just her. Thanks for the trip down Memory Lane.Molly Mandeville Fryerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13480880234069720156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-57190665667734908482008-11-21T12:38:00.000-06:002008-11-21T12:38:00.000-06:00Oh Jane! I could nearly cry with that post. I ha...Oh Jane! I could nearly cry with that post. I have such good memories. You have kept all your barbies!!! Sigh. Not me. Well I did have some but when my parents moved from PA to UT they had to sacrifice some things that wouldn't fit into the truck. Toys and vintage christmas ornaments did not make the cut. At the time, I was disappointed but I was only 17. Now I could scream. Your stuff is so amazingly well preserved. That is a great loot there. I was born in 57. I had hand-me down barbies - not complaining! from my sisters. Then when I was 7 I got my own and I was obsessed. I would go to the toy department and stand there wanting it ALL. I had a true love. But then "thing maker" came along and I got older and moved on. I am so glad you have your originals. That makes them so incredibly special. I've kept better care of my girls dolls and he clothes I made for them. At least I learned! Thank you for posting this. I loved it.Nanette Merrillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05734358126338038553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-19024295434963736802008-11-21T04:43:00.000-06:002008-11-21T04:43:00.000-06:00Love the trip down memory lane with Barbie! thank...Love the trip down memory lane with Barbie! thanks for sharing all those wonderful outfits.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11515452957964923679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-64074847453883002492008-11-20T19:31:00.000-06:002008-11-20T19:31:00.000-06:00What's the deal with music on your blog?

They had hand made clothes too. They loved playing with my old things more than their new stuff! It's all about sentiment for girls.
