OMG Karin- I now remember the skiing barbie- and I actually had that one !- but it certainly didn't survive into the 80s when I sold them all. I never had a skipper, I have no idea why. Loving this thread :)

My parents were really straight and had no issues with the Barbie thing at all- guess she was a good role model for keeping women in their place in the 60's-70's :hysterical: My mother made loads of Barbie clothes, she also made them to sell at church fund-raisers.I didn't get enough pocket...

Fantastic photos Ruth and Sarah :cheer:

You look wonderful Karin, so does the beach at Bora Bora :)

hey Sarah- we posted at the same time again!! :clapping:

I want to go!!!!!

Hey Lauren, its a gem of a swim suit- not a bullet bra, but the boobs are definitely ''out there"' perhaps you could use semi pointed cups to describe it? . Bubble is a great word for the shirred fabric :)

Love this Karin- I wish I still had my Skipper doll, sold in the 80's along with my entire Barbie collection for a song sadly

Yep, I have to agree with 1980s, but it is beautiful !

I love love this series- I still have the final episode to watch yet. I do think that Anne had an unfair advantage- I would have like her to have some tougher competition myself. The time lines are really intense - especially on a domestic sewing machine. And tell me- why aren't they over...

I love it too- such a fabulous front page image! :cheer:

Wow Ruth, it sounds amazing, I hope you sell loads of your stock!!:cheer:

You are right I think Melanie-I will file that away for future reference :)

Wow- everyone has such amazing items this week! :cheer:

Oh me too Alice!! Maggie- you never cease to amaze me :clapping:

yes Nicole, it must be a matching strap, but handles would be super cute instead I think, and perhaps a bit more user friendly :sunshine: I am in love with this bag I think!

:) Thanks Ruth :)

Wow Marian, congratulations -what a score! The condition is amazing, and so are the colours.

Ruth, I amk sure you are right- but you could sew an extension on both front and back to get around that problem I think?

Linda that purse is adorable- I love it! How Nicole explained it is exactly what I would have said, and its going to come down to your handles, so pop another photo up for us maybe!

I agree with Nicole and Hollis, that it is more likely to be 1940s. A 13 inch neck is very small, the average ladies neck is more usually 14 upwards, but on the very slim and fine boned or petite its not unknown. . The yoke looks to deep to be a girls size in my opinion. Oh I should have said-...

me too Sarah, and from watching episode one, I think they need to remove all the floral fabrics from the shelves. I really enjoyed it though, the time frames are really quite tight, especially on a domestic sewing machine.
