Category: 2 Enchanting 2B True — Doll Pics

This is a gallery of various pictures I’ve taken of dolls, doll clothing, and dioramas.

Image of Mattel's "Tall Barbie" standing in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, wearing a pair of white handmade pants with red seams. Barbie has one hand on her hip and the other at her side. She smiles brightly. She's also wearing a princess-seams shirt decorated with peace signs. Tall Barbie's features look Asian, and her skin tone is pale. The image includes a watermark that says, "ChellyWood.com" for free printable sewing patterns and tutorials.

My #TallBarbie arrived and I’ve started designing #sewing patterns for her! #TheDollEvolves

As you can see, the new “Tall Barbie” is only slightly taller than my Liv Doll (from Spin Master), but significantly taller than Momoko (from Sekiguchi). When she arrived earlier this week, I was so excited, I couldn’t sleep in, even though I had the day off! I got up at 5 AM and started designing patterns for her!

Who is your favorite #AfricanAmerican doll? Leave a comment @ ChellyWood.com

This is “Soul” from Hasbro’s World of Love doll collection. She has always been my favorite African American doll, even though she’s only moderately articulated. Why do I love this doll so much? She brings me happy memories of my childhood! When I was growing up in the early 1970’s, dolls who really looked African American were unheard-of. True, they had Barbies who were dark complected, … Continue reading Who is your favorite #AfricanAmerican doll? Leave a comment @ ChellyWood.com
