SASHA CELEBRATION WEEKEND .. THE LAST POST

Well I'll bring all the odds and ends together in this last post on the Sasha Celebration Weekend.

I took an assortment of dolls with me not just Sasha.

here they are standing or sitting on the dressing table. I even took a bench for my Kay Wiggs Girl Elfine to sit on.

Elfine my elf sitting next to a new girl . details later, then Hattie, Annie, Bruno ( Pongratz wooden boy) Jamie.

next to Jamie is Tammy ( zwergnase junior ) then Magda and finally Mona ( a Muller Wichtel )

I collected my second Kaye Wiggs girl at the weekend , here she's recovering from her journey.
She does not have her eyes in place and although I bought her some old clothes along and a new pair of boots and a new wig. I decided that i wanted her to have a face up as she came with the original factory painted one.

So her head was removed on Sunday and it's gone off to be given a more realistic look.


Mean while down stairs

I took Magda and Jamie to join the Sasha displays.

Dolls were starting to gather where ever there was a place to stand or sit.

more gathering

I do love these re painted Pintuck girls by Janet , this is Ginger's girl I believe.

This is Kendal's girl that I also love..

 Petrana's dolls.

more of them

Great wig on this girl of Petrana's.

Mona visiting with the Dukelets during the raffle.

This is a troll by Rosemarie Muller and a few Sasha collectors are also fans of these dolls, I have one myself , Mona.

They have such happy faces.

These two I believe belonged to Rosie S.

 Four attended the weekend , I missed getting a photo of Diane's boy.

Mona was happy to see some other Wichtel Trolls .
 Another non Sasha doll was Jonny's Nini doll

Beautifully made by Jonny including all her clothes, she is very similar in feel to the studio and course dolls.

 A lovely size .The cardigan is based on one from an old family photo of his mother as a young girl

I wished I 'd asked Jonny to hold her up, so I could have taken a better photo of her sweet face.

We'll finish with the Sasha's and Gregor's who took part in the fancy dress competition and display.

Tree beautifully made by Theresa.

more maids and merry men.

a well dressed band of robbers!

This girl was my favourite, I loved everything about her and her outfit.

So I hope you've enjoyed these photo's of the Sasha Celebration Weekend, It was a great couple of days among like minded people who were there to have a good time and talk dolls and more.

and even the weather stayed nice !

SASHA CELEBRATION WEEKEND **** THE SALES TABLES!

Well it was time for the sales tables and what fabulous tables they were!

Judith of Dolly Doodles table was awash with fabulous outfits.

this is as close as I got to them , before the doors opened and the hoards arrived!

Look at those colours! how I wished I'd had a chance to go back and rummage i'd have spent a fortune! But alas I'll tell my tale at the end...

Next is Hotchkissed dresses etc by Marilyn

 another view of Marilyn's wonders, her smocked dresses a popular buy.

I think this was Linda's table of goodies.

some more of Linda's in the centre and on the left, I sooo wanted that purple cardigan but it was not to be.... sigh...

Emma had been knitting up a storm and had these outfits available on her table

and also these Sasha's etc.

Jane's beautiful knitwear was available on her table.

again apart from taking the photo's I never go the chance to go back and buy!! Look at those gorgeous striped cardies on the right and the socks in the centre and the plain cardie's on the left!

gorgeous!

On the other side of Jane's table was Janet's goodies.

Janet was selling a couple of Sasha's

a gorgeous set of dolls on offer .

lovely colours and designs

Janet and Jane's table

In the second room was Ann's table

Having traveled all the way from the US, Ann did not have much but what she had was quality

The crude eyed boy was by Sasha based on her son Fritz and given to Sara Doggart who gave it to Ann, a wonderful boy with all his Provenance.

 Theresa's sales table a wonderland of props and clothes.

I was eyeing up that deckchair but I already have two did I need a third? I managed to resist.. just.

 Petrana's table full of lovely dresses etc plus a couple of dolls.

Lovely colours and fabric's at very good prices.

And this is where I spent the sale ! Helping Petrana run her sales. I had not brought my bag or money down with me from my room, so when the sales were about to be set up, I went up to the room to find Paul but he was not there! I could not phone him as my phone was in the room!

So on my way back down I came across Petrana who asked if I'd help her carry her goods to the sales room. I of course said yes and while she got ready I looked through her bags and pulled out a couple of items to buy.

So I helped Petrana set up and since I had no money to buy anything I helped her sell, well I say helped, I did the selling and she did the sitting about trying to boss a boss! lol 

But it worked and I had a great time selling her lovely clothes , the time shot round and before I knew it we were packing away ! and I'd not had a chance to go round and see all those other lovely things! In one way it saved me a fortune but in another I'm sorry I did not get a chance to buy a few more things but then I'd have been leaving IOU's all over the place and would have probably had to see a kidney to meet my debts! 

Such is the life of a Sashaholic....
