Blythe Middie Dolls & Upcoming Doll Room

Blythe Middie  Dolls
Traveled from Hong Kong
Blythe Dolls-Middie's
New Doll Room [In the making]
Miss Blythe needs a pretty /dainty dress!!
Wow...what a tiny pattern, I am drafting!!
Close up

 The Blythe dolls came out in the 60's & 70'S.. The original
ones are very popular  at the moment. The littlest pet
shop came up with some small [4-5 in] ones, in
their play sets. I couldn't find one, so  I searched
ebay and these sweet girls arrived at my house  , all
the way from Hong Kong.

Callie[11 yr old granddaughter] was visiting, when I found these.
She is totally excited about "our  dolls".  We both decided
they need a home, of their own.. I just happened to
have this little curio shelf . So, we are going to paint,
wall paper, add décor and a new home for our girls.
[Just waiting on  my helper to come}. Now, While
waiting on  her, I decided I wanted them to have some
long pretty dresses/hair bows, accessories, etc.. SO,
 I set out to cut a pattern [now, this is a tiny pattern].
 Stay tuned.. for  the Blythe Girls new house and Clothes.

  2. Shelly, that will be fun for me and Callie to do.. To think up names for the girls.. She is really excited about this upcoming job.. School has her busy right now.. but hopefully, I will get the dresses made and it won't be long, until she can help me decorate the house/cabinet. Praying for your test.

  4. They are so sweet. I have never heard of these dolls before, even though I was around in the 60's and 70'S. Look forward to seeing the little clothes.

    1. I did not remember the blythe dolls from back then either.. I saw them on another blog, and when I began to research the "original blythe dolls", they were so adorable[and expensive].. So.. decided on the new littlest pet shop ones.ha But know, my granddaughter will have fun/memories with this project.
