Marilyn Allen commented on Simon Farnworth's group 'Fashion Doll Dioramas'
"I am always so jealous that Barbie-size have cars!  I only work with the 16" size and we have no cars.   Granted, they would be huge, but still .... I do envy the Barbie collectors."

"I love my male dolls!!  My favorite at the moment is James Collins from Tonner.  He just barely edged out the Prince Charming sculpt.  Well, now that I really think about it, it's gonna have to be a tie!    I am just…"

"It looks like it could take real photos!  LOL.  You're safe.  Too big anyway!  You know, the fashion dolls have had several cameras that came with outfits. The Eve doll (no longer made) had one and I think Brenda Starr had…"

Marilyn Allen commented on Nilsa M. Donelan's group 'Big Girls (16", 22", and plus)'
"Rebecca, I have often paid more for an outfit for a 16" than I would pay for my human clothes.  But then, they have a lifestyle that demands it!   You should see the food they get!  And no end of cocktails!"

"I do have to say that sewing for Bijou is about like sewing for a human after being used to sewing for the 16" gals.    Same with Cissy.  "

Marilyn Allen commented on Nilsa M. Donelan's group 'Big Girls (16", 22", and plus)'
"Nilsa, I have to say that her size is both a plus and a minus.  I love large dolls, but it is difficult to find clothes for her.  Most of the time I enlarge a Gene/Tyler/Alex pattern and have to adjust the fit to Bijou's (her name)…"

unfortunatly Marilyn we are living in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere, Extrmadura, Spain, there is only 1 movie theater in the nearest town, that shows only very badly doubled movies, so the only option for us is to buy Dvd's or download movies, not that we have a lot of choices hee hee

no, Marilyn, It seems that when she arrived home her name arrived with her, she was just smiling at me and her name pop up! (I think that the way my dolls "talk "to me )

I didn't see the girl with the dragon tattoo, yet (but will for sure) so Lizbeth  from the movie was not in my mind and  my Lizbeth arrived in march2010 the movie was not out yet hee hee

 I will go and check on your Vita group thanks for the invite, I do not know a lot of people who love horsman vita, she is a wonderful addition to my "gang, and she is so poseable, a bit like the Alex from Mme Alexander.
