Clothes Board for My Twinn 23 Dolls

 Dolls are one thing, but then they need clothes and shoes, and don't forget the socks.  Dolls might even need underwear.

If you start accumulating doll clothes, it may be useful to group the clothes into outfits.  This is especially important before placing an order for more clothes.  In 2023, I made a clothes board for my dolls.

This helped me to think about which shoes were going to go with which outfit, and also where I needed to order socks or an undershirt, to get a complete outfit.

It was really fun to create.  The outfits were sketched on white paper, and glued onto a large piece of cardboard.  Then I laminated the whole thing with transparent packing tape.

  They are pose-able dolls with cloth bodies and vinyl limbs that stand about 23" tall.  In this context, poseable means that you can move their neck left to right, arms up and down and legs can get into most positions although they can't really sit with their knees folded beneath them.  As it has been stated, the pose-ability allows these dolls "to get into all kinds of trouble" and that is part of the fun of working with them.   This is Rose.  She is an Audrey face mold.   My Twinn 23 dolls wear dolls clothes that are specifically designed for them, though they can also fit into some newborn or infant 0-3 month sized clothing.  The infant clothing depending on the article may look too baby-ish for the dolls which in most cases resemble child faces and young adult faces.  They can wear Size 1 or Size 1.5 infant shoes (that's US size).  It really depends on the brand of shoe, because some Size 2 infant shoes fit, or sometimes are 1" t...

She is marked "AL I-P(2)" on her scalp, which gives her the collector name Emma and that is what I call her by.  The girl that I have has 1997 neck date and tan fabric body with a 2007 tag attached.

Emma is signed behind her left ear, in yellow pen   The top of her scalp is further mark...
