I did really well, getting the doll, and three outfits I think it was, for just over £100, I real bargain I thought.<br />Having said that, the Zwergs are soooo tempting, I'm not surprised you got one :) but then I am prejudiced as I love mine. But I have dilemmas like this a lot after seeing photos of dolls. I wish you luck :)<br />xxxSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14816580427584989752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235272631422518491.post-2292312097614516262017-01-30T19:52:07.354+01:002017-01-30T19:52:07.354+01:00Thank you very much Sam, I'm glad you like the...Thank you very much Sam, I'm glad you like them and their outfits :)<br />And thank you for visiting!<br />xxxSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14816580427584989752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235272631422518491.post-8197613223578752882017-01-30T19:51:31.500+01:002017-01-30T19:51:31.500+01:00Thanks very much Sandi, I'm glad you liked thi...Thanks very much Sandi, I'm glad you liked this post.<br />I went to look and yes, they do still have the red coat at Bonnie & Pearl but it is no longer in the sale :( I was fortunate in that when I got my doll and the clothes, there were loads of things reduced and I got my doll quite cheaply as she was being discontinued. However, I just looked at the dolls and she's there still, but full price. I guess they had a change of heart!<br />As for the wig, this was as messy as rerooting except the hair was mega fine! I'm not sure which I prefer though, I do find rerooting very relaxing...except for the poor cuticles on my nails!<br />xxx <br />Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14816580427584989752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235272631422518491.post-16407960276701288602017-01-30T19:43:56.720+01:002017-01-30T19:43:56.720+01:00Awww thanks so much Anne, that's very kind of ...Awww thanks so much Anne, that's very kind of you.<br />When you have no snow, I will come and visit ;) with my sewing machine!!

I managed to resist temptation and purchased a Zwerg doll instead as I had originally planned but now after seeing your Gotz doll so gorgeously dressed and reading your review of her coat, I'm back to coveting. Such a dilemma...<br />-RebeccaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235272631422518491.post-82495677324525561242017-01-27T03:29:16.712+01:002017-01-27T03:29:16.712+01:00The outfits look great!

You're right about the stary eyes, I think changing the is a good idea, or at least moving them to a sideward glance (that sometimes helps). Not a real fan of making wigs myself, but have done a few re-roots over the years. Gasped when I saw the red coat!! I had one just like that when I was about three, red, double breasted with black buttons, but the collar was black too. My mother used to have an old black and white photo of me in it, sitting beside her bed. I wonder if Bonnie and Pearl still have them, I could make a mini me. LOL!!<br /><br />All in all, well done!<br />Hugs,<br />XXanaduhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06355069609640008727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8235272631422518491.post-49622273056050292382017-01-24T23:50:56.209+01:002017-01-24T23:50:56.209+01:00Superchic.

In that larger scale, it must be much more difficult. So, well done! Love her outfit.<br />I also like the red coat on Emily. I have a similar one that came with my antique AM 1984.

It's nice when a pattern can be used for more than one doll.<br />The wig looks like really hair and is a lovely colour that suits her.<br />I love the red coat and fake fur hat with the striped tights and red boots. Her coat reminds me of a photo of my older sister aged about two, I'll have to hunt it out, it's in black and white though :) xxxDeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17421536902399459683noreply@blogger.com
