Penny Playpal

A yahoo group that I belong to, Small Quilt Talk, is hosted by Kathleen Tracy. She is the author of 3 books by That Patchwork Place. She has a great blog, http://sentimentalquilter.blogspot.com/


I went to read it today, and lo and behold, she had a doll like mine! Her's is Patty Playpal, and mine is Penny Playpal (the little sister). Penny is all dressed up for Christmas. My mom bought her for me for Christmas 1961 when I was only 6 weeks old! I didn't play with her much through the years and my mom suspected it was because she was on the big side. She wears 2T sized clothes, so I watch for them on the clearance sales so she can have a wardrobe!
I'm still not done Christmas shopping, but I hope to be done soon. If I KNEW what to get, I could have been done a long time ago!
