Paper booties

I used to have a couple of paper dolls when I was a kid. I loved dressing them up in their cut-out clothes and making new, matching pieces for them. This hobby was followed by sewing pieces of clothing for Barbie dolls. I clearly remember leather boots I made for them and pink furry coats, which they were wearing with pride - they were so unique and no one else had such a collection. 
That definitely shaped my future interests and my great love for fabric and design.

The listing below reminds me of the type of dolls I had -- I wish I still had them to see if my style is in any way influenced by them.
