vintage doll clothes

I took photos of a few more items from my mom's doll clothes collection. Aren't they so sweet. And they bring back so many memories. I was clicking around on flickr looking for a vintage doll clothes group and didn't see one so I started one up. If you have any great vintage doll clothes hanging around, grab your camera! I love flickr. It so satisfies the collector in me. Here's the group... Vintage Doll Clothes.

Ooo...next time I go home to visit my parents I will have to get the camera out and take pictures of all the doll clothes I have from my mom and grandma. What a fun idea!

oh these are very sweet! I feel inspired now to dig out my stash of vintage doll clothes.

Great idea, I have not been through my mother and grandmother's doll clothes yet but want to do it ever since your last post about the subject. I love these, specially the first set. I think I'll get lost in the flickr group.

This makes me wish that all of my mom's doll clothes that she and my grandmother made (and that I played with constantly as a child...) were here living with me, instead of being back home with my mom.

Good idea on starting up a flickr group! One day, I shall add to it. : )

These are wee wonderful!
The coat and hat are a dream.

Couldn't you please let us see a pic of your doll which sounded so beautiful in another post of yours - I've never seen that kind in Europe.

Gorgeous doll clothes!

Theres is also a French collective blog (http://happydoll.canalblog.com/) gathering up doll clothes and other doll items hand made by French bloggers for the "happy to see you" dolls (http://www.happytoseeyou.net/).
I don't even own one of these dolls, but I check this blog regularly. Tons of cute cute things with a retro/vintage feeling.

Great idea! I'll have to dig out my grandmas handmade Madame Alexander doll clothes and take some shots. Have you seen these Barbie clothes prints on Etsy? http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=7765337

I love the pinafore. These clothes remind me of the ones my grandma would sew for my dolls. They are treasures.... but unfortunately they are all in storage, dolls and all :o( One day I'll see them again!

I just love the little coat and bonnet, I wish they came in both my daughters and my size.

The clothes are beautiful.

Is the background of the middle photo fabric or paper? You wouldn't by chance remember where you got it from would you?

Thanks - Annie

What a great idea-starting the flickr group for all these beauties! I have such happy memories of playing with my mother's dolls and clothes that her grandmother had made for them.
