that's so cute. I too remember the older Holly Hobbie dolls, and in fact I have old buttons that have a side view of Holly Hobby in a mother of pearl look design inside of a golden brown buttons(the pearlized design is inside of golden brown buttons, really pretty), saved from a dress that my mom made for me back when I was about 6-7 yrs old..the buttons are 31 yrs old, but I never could get rid of them.(yikes, just told my age..ha)

Oh, I LOVED Holly Hobbie as a girl and I dressed my daughter in long dresses and pinafores with bonnets for years. Even when she was 7 or 8, she wore them and LIKED them. let me know if that is the right pattern. I might pick one up to make for a future grandchild some day.

Berrie, such a cute pattern. I never saw one like that growing up. I just had the paper dolls. Bonnie blessed me with stickers just recently. I still like her just the way she is, but I see there was an advertisement for the "new" Holly Hobbie. (sigh) Why can't they leave her the way she always was.

These patterns pop up all the time on ebay. Here's a search I did in doll patterns of the Holly Hobbie patterns listed now:

The two categories you want to search in are doll patterns (dolls, then patterns)and collectibles (then vintage sewing, then patterns, the toys and animals)...

Good luck!

Hey, I am almost 52 in Feb. Lol.
I love Strawberry Shortcake.
Who says we are to old?
My deceased grandmother died about 5 years ago.
She was 93 and she still loved dolls.

I never had that many dolls or bears when I was a young.
I remember like maybe 4 dolls and 1 big teddy bear.
I love and collect Teddy bears too. I have a small collection of bears.

Thanks Pinkroses ( sheila
