Barbie's Pink Dress

One of my regular blogs to read is Lydia's Post, written by the lovely Diane - we both have many of the same interests and it's amazing the things that we both share a love of - well, now we share the same Barbie dress.  Diane has done a couple of  posts lately on her childhood Barbies's - Monday's post really caught my eye - there was a pink crocheted dress just like mine!  Amazed!!  What are the chances of that???


Diane and I decided to both do a post on Barbie's pink dress!   Diane's dress is a mini, and she has matching underpants!!   Head on over to Lydia's Post and check out that lovely pink mini!   



My great aunt used to make all my Barbie clothes and I think my grandmother made a few too - I still remember getting a whole box of these hand made Barbie clothes one Christmas -what a gift!!   I blogged about my Barbie and some of these great clothes last year right here.  


This is Diane's pattern - I couldn't believe it when I saw it, I knew I had some of these outfits and here they are....



A corduroy coat is always nice!



This gown is missing the top part


She must have had a lot of scrap corduroy on hand!


This jacket doesn't have the hood like in the pattern but it looks very similar


Party Time!!


Looks like I had everything on that pattern except the two piece suit.  These outfits are the cutest, I love the tiny snaps!!


I always like an excuse to get out the Barbie's - this has been such a fun post to put together and to share with my friend, Diane!!!  Make sure you head on over and check out all her Barbie fashions too!!!


Linking up all the Barbie fun with Dawn over at We Call it Junkin and Vintage Thingie Thursday
