I think this was the first year for low cost basic beach dolls which became very popular over the years.   I still need to get the Ken for this series but haven't really been looking too hard (and for the time being I have put a hold on any doll buying unless it is something special and a great price).

P.J., Christie and Barbie are my favorites in this series.  Christie is the only one that I have the original swimsuit for, and she had her sunglasses still attached to her head.  Francie is my least favorite.  She is actually the Casey facemold which I think was a kind of copout.  The Skipper is okay, she has beautiful think long hair.

The project continues!  The Husband and I are limiting are time out in public so I should get a lot more of this done along with sewing.

Thanks for stopping by ..........
