perfect dress for a celebration. It has three tiers of ruffles edged in
bright colored rickrack and a sash in back that ties in a bow. White
anklets, and black Mary Jane Shoes. Molly™ wanted to look particularly
pretty for her party so she brushed out her braids and topped her long
wavy hair with a shiny red party crown. Doesn't she look like a
princess.

Meet Miss Logan
Meet Logan. Years ago, just before Pleasant Company was sold to Mattel, they had a line of 4 dolls called Hopscotch Hill School. They were to fill the gap between Bitty Baby and the regular 18" dolls. When Mattel bought the company they did away with them, but I have fallen in love with these whimsical girls. They remind me of my Granddaughters....all legs and arms and wonkie!!!! Here is Logan, and I was able to find her complete meet outfit, minus her notebook.(still searching but I made her one.) These girls are just so cute. I will have a few up for sale on my Ebay shop shortly.....I went a little crazy when I started looking for them!!! Can't wait to start sewing for them!!!!
