Dolls are finding me...

Here is the latest one!

She was at a neighbor's yard sale.  I passed up on her the first day...then thought about her the whole next day...  I went over to the lady's house that night and asked if she was still available.  Yes,  she was still there.  The lady was thrilled that I wanted her and gave her to me for free.  Said it was her mother's favorite doll and that she would love me to have her.  So here she is.  She needs a lot of love and attention-- hair and clothes wise...  I'll see what I can do.  She is a 1961 Charmin' Chatty Cathy.  24" tall.  Her mechanism that makes her talk,  doesn't work,  but that's OK with me.  I would need to completely take her body apart to fix it and I won't do that. So I will enjoy her as she is...




Love her cute little,  mischievous smile!
I smile when I look at her 
and that is a wonderful thing!

'Til next time,  Love ya,  Jean

I also smiled when I saw your sweet Charmin' Chatty Cathy. Not only did I smile because of her cute little expression, but also because of your thinking about her all the next day and then going back to get her. That sounds so like something I would do. I love giving second (and more) chances to things. When I called the animal shelter to inquire if Millie was still there, the lady said, "Millie's still here." My sweet hubby says he is just one of the strays I picked up and brought home. :~)

My daughter had a singing Chatty Cathy when she was a little girl. She doesn't sing anymore but she still wears her original dress. They are sweet dolls.
