Blythe A Day September 2023 - Around The World In 30 Days For The Theme: “Road Trip”

Dollybird 25 [Review]

Summary

Honestly, I bought this one because the cover is cute. I don’t even collect Pure Neemo. What is wrong with me? Anyway the patterns in here are cute and I would definitely make some of them if I had a doll they would fit. There are lots of patterns this time too. The saving grace for me is the Gingham set for Unoa girls / slim minis.

Visual pattern list

Pros

Perfect for Pure Neemo fans 

Cons

Typical for Dollybird, pattern instructions consist only of a few diagrams and written instructions. They usually require some sewing skill and luck with google translate 

Lots of irrelevant pages like shopping spreads, which are well out of date now even if you could get a proxy to shop for you in Japan

Final thoughts

Definitely a nice one to pick up if you have Pure Neemo sized dolls.

A Christmas Nativity

♫ “O holy night, the stars are brightly shining, It is the night of the dear Saviour’s birth; Long lay the world in sin and error pining, 'Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;

Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices! O night divine! O night when Christ was born. O night, O holy night, O night divine.”♫

WEAPON OF CHOICE: Her beauty.

OTHER PERSONAL INFO: She's been a friend, self-insert, role model, surrogate big sister, and even surrogate mother to countless girls, and probably to some boys too, for more than sixty years. Whether you love her (for her aesthetics, for her blend of femininity and power, for the way she lets girls use their imaginations and explore every possible aspect of adult womanhood, etc.), or find her annoying (for the unrealistic beauty standards she sets, her "promotion" of gender conformity and materialism, etc.), or a combination of both, she's impossible to ignore.
