PAST "OTHER" CUSTOM DOLL CLOTHING
July 2006
Replica of Hilary Swank...
...in her boxing attire, from the "Million Dollar Baby" Movie
     
Gail initially had no intention to enter this years Barbie Convention contest, yet last minute when she acquired Barbie sized boxing gloves, the thought went racing through her mind of entering a replica of Hilary Swank from the movie "Million Dollar Baby". Wish we had the time to provide the cape to
provide the completed look.
Jody's old doll dress replicated
 
  
Jody is a local customer who came to me desiring to have her old doll dress replaced. In her going through family heirlooms, she found that this dress was ruined from being in storage and had mold that could not be removed. In replacing the old dress, Jody provided the old dress that I used as a pattern,
and used all the original trim, as that was not damaged from being stored over the years. Nov 2005

Replica (replacement) outfit for Maria - A Marie Osmond creation

24" - 1950's - Lady Fashion Doll
. . . by Deluxe Reading Corp, receives a similar replica dress of days gone by.
  
The original dress was made of a blue taffeta, yet with the inability to find the same taffeta material, we choose to make the dress out of a lovely crepe material, giving this dress a nice flow. The hat is made of cotton, and trimmed with floral pieces. This lady fashion doll resides with Susan in CO.

representing the Dr. Who characters.
