Today I got more goodies in the mail. An article from my Aunt.She had told me she would be sending it to me.
I'm not sure the pictures will enlarge enough for you to read them.
On January 4, 2012 the West Virginia Times published the story.
They do a feature on someone's hobby each week.
Aunt Elsie has been collecting dolls since 1978. She has 500+ dolls.
Her favorite is still the doll someone made for her of her mother from a picture.
I posted about the mother doll a few years back.

I love dolls too, and have never grown out of them! Now I am trying to downsize and realise I need to shed many of my treasures. Loved this post, of course.
I love the mother doll, too!!
I could read the article although some was missing. Very interesting! Love the Mother doll!
I made a life size doll for my granddaughter, of her mother. I don't think she even knows where it is. They threw it in the storage building and it mildewed, so it was probably trashed years ago. I won't bother telling you how that made me feel.
What a wonderful famly heritage.
Thank you for stopping by spots ad Wrinkles and for your kind feedback. I hope you drop by again.
Have a good evening - Marsha
Great congrats - love the Mother doll also.
come watch St Ives Fireworks on New Years Eve + Youtube video
What a great story, I bet little girls would love to visit her house! My husband's family is also from West Virginia.
You've had some pretty good stuff in your mailbox lately!
At first I thought you were putting up the old article about your Aunt Jessie...this is so great.
