Jenny is our host for Alphabe-Thursday.
Click here to see others who are participating.
This is my first year to participate.
The first three posts are on my other blog,
but this time I am featuring things I made so this I will post over here!
D is for Dolls. And for Doll-bed.
I made the dolls when my Daughter was a young girl.
I made them from preprinted fabric and they were played with often.
The Doll-bed I painted back in 1986.
A closer view of the Dolls I made.
The Dolls on the bottom are old ones.
Perhaps they used to be my mom's.
I don't remember for sure.
Here I am with my Daughter-in-law and my two precious
grand-Daughters!
They just recently visited us for Thanksgiving and here we are
at the San Francisco Zoo.
My grand Daughters played with my Dolls while they were here.
It was fun to have them here. First time they had been to our home!
I am also linking with Vintage Thingie Thursday since my dolls are older than 25 years and so is the Doll-bed.
In addition behind the Doll-bed is the spinning wheel that used to belong to my aunt/godmother.
Visit Suzanne at Colorado Lady for more Vintage Thingie Thursday posts.
Thanks for visiting!

Beautiful post and dolls I am about tobecome a grandmother for the first time
So glad you posted a picture of those cute granddaughters you told me about! No wonder you miss them already. I used to collect and make dolls way back when, now I just make Raggedy Annie's and Andy's.
Hope you have a wonderful holiday season!
What wonderful treasures you have kept and shared. I really like the photo of you and family.
Those are pretty cool..talking about the dolls AND the grand daughters (dolls too!)
Love the dolls, I think they were one of the first things I made for my daughter when I got my first machine. I loved preprinted fabric. I'm follower #50. No, I'm not looking for a prize - just wanted you to know I liked your blog.
How sweet that those dear little dolls can be enjoyed by the next generation...they will continue to grow dearer each year.
The dolls you made are so sweet and the bed is too. How special that you had your first visit from your granddaughters in your home and they played with your own dolls too. What precious memories.
Delightful Dolls and Doll bed...and wonderful photo of you, your Daughter in law and your cute grandDaughters!
Thank you so much for your visit and comment :o)
Have a wonderful and blessed Christmas!
Blessings & Aloha!
