1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Dollstown Mini discussion part 6

Jul 1, 2016

    1. I know @Teddy. Even though I have notifications turned on it hasn't worked for quite awhile on the DT thread for some reason. Have you been working on anything for your dolls?

    2. @coleen the #160 pattern is lovely and so useful. I like little crop cardi's very much.

      @Jaybirdfinnigan I can't help but see on your Flickr page your Seola girl.......how do you feel about her now? And how did you feel about letting her use Una's body????

    3. I wasn't particularly happy with her faceup when I did it a couple of weeks ago, but it is starting to grow on me. I'm going to live with it for now and see if her character comes to me. Still sharing the body for now. The Seola is not giving me a 1940s feel at the moment, so sharing isn't a problem.

    4. @Jaybirdfinnigan lucky you that the girls inhabit different words.
      So far I haven't been able to play the body sharing game with my DT7 girls......even when they inhabit different eras!

    5. Mailto is not only enjoying his life here but he's getting rather demanding.

      Me: You think you have enough stuffed animals there, Kaito
      Kaito: Yes, in fact I would love a sister to share them with. She can have the girlie ones.
      Me: You know that's kind of sexiest. But your nine, you'll learn.
       
    6. @animemom that's when you know they are at home! He has a cozy little nook with his wicker settee and stuffies. And, he is willing to share! That doesn't happen often!

    7. @animemom........hahahahahaaa! Good luck with the savings plan then. I hope you can bring a sister home really soon.

    8. Thanks, but I may have to wait until September.
       
    9. My Arin says he should think carefully before making that wish. Sisters can be a pain.

      Arin: "I must not tell my sister that real Princesses can pee through twelve mattresses. I must not tell my sister that...."
      "So unfair to make me write lines - it's not my fault that Nettle is so gullible!"

    10. Hahahahahaaa!
      That is just so funny Teddy! And I have heard this before and I still find it so funny {{still giggling}} .....keep writing those lines Arin. And keep going for as long as it takes 12 mattress to dry! LOL!

      So funny!

    11. @Teddy Poor Arin! Like @Jane I am still laughing! Unfortunately for Arin, boys seldom win the argument against girls.

    12. Unfortunately for Arin, he's all too keen to take advantage of his (older) sister's gullability and trusting nature...

    13. Poor fellow. I have had an Arin as a boy with a twin sister, a Selola. I loved having twins. These won't be twins, just siblings. If I can manage to ever find a five year body I can for sure make her seven years old instead of eight with growth spurt.
       
    14. Good hunting!

    15. All the girls look wonderful, and they look like they are having such a fun time! I miss having doll friends close by. When I moved 4 yrs ago, there aren't any doll collectors I'm aware, and if they are I would venture antique dolls. This area is all country and antiques.

    16. I am very lucky. Even though I live in the country I joined two groups, one in Illinois and one in Wisconsin. I have to drive at least two hours one way to attend meet ups, but so worth it. Luckily my daughter in law joined the hobby about nine years ago and we go to meet ups together as well as talk dolls a lot. If you post where you're from you might get help finding others near you.
       
    17. I missed this post until just now! It was great seeing your January again Teddy.
      @animemom I had to drive over 2 hours to get to this meet-up too.....but it was so worth the journey. Like you, I love meet-ups

      I took along my new Deogi....the girl in the blue dress with the blonde hair. Have I introduced her here yet? I have forgotten :roll:
       
      • x 1
    18. You might not have introduced her here, but you have shared on Facebook page. I am going to get a Deogi as a little sister for Kaito asap and also the body I need for an Arin Head to be another boy. I wrote Dollstown asking they consider making a non gender specific body so the boys could wear tight shirts or no shirts in summer without worrying about breasts showing. Modifications on chests can get expensive. I took new photos of Kaito so will share here soon.
       
    19. I hope you find someone within reachable distance fo meets soon.

      We all travelled from different counties to get to this meet, I suspect we were all taveling for similar amounts of time, although Alice and I went by train and met up in London to travel on from there together, while Jane drove. Jane's journey was probably the most time consuming.

      Not that the dolls would care about that, of course - they get put in the bag at one end and taken out at the othr so the journey itself is nothing to them.

      I'm pretty sre that my Arin boy has the same chest piece as the girl 7year body because they just used a different lower-body piece for the boy body (when they still made boy bodies, that is) :

      This is an old picture I took some years ago and I should get aorudn to doing comparison shots with January's girl body.

      I don't think you have, Jane (althoguh I haven't been getting notifications of posts to the thread so may have missed it), but it was lovely to see her at the meet.
