Thanks for all the welcomes.
 Pippa dolls were not part of the Barbie or Sindy Franchise.
They were small fashion dolls, only about 6 inches tall. I thought they were prettier than the other two.
In my dreams I'm still sewing....and also in my nightmares.

Hi! Sounds like you have some exciting projects to show & tell! We like pics (I think you need a few posts before you're allowed to add pics)

You can post pics directly from your computer/laptop/tablet/phone straight away if you become a subscriber to TSP,

I think I was handed down a Pippa doll when I was little. If that's what she is, she spent several decades appearing annually on top of a Christmas tree, as mum made her into a fairy.  :D

I have a dust cover cut out ready to sew for my Skiver. Problem is, I need OH to fix the Skiver so I can thin the edges to sew it.   :rolleyes:
 I'm also in the middle of changing my storage "wardrobe" for a much larger one. Stuff all over the place!

@Arloony  I live not far from Ste.Severe, right at the bottom of dept 36.
We bought a near derelict farmhouse in 2004, lived in a touring caravan for 9 months while we made the house "livable".  That year the dept had a really bad winter. So much snow we made an igloo! Got some great pictures.
Typical " No going back " stuff.
Where abouts do you live?
