I'll have to do a separate post/tribute to her.<br /><br />Aside: I don't know what I did but about 2 weeks ago, my shoulder hurt whenever I attempted to raise my arm. Stabbing pain like don't move me, leave me alone. Only it's attached to me so I had to work around it. My guess is that I pulled a muscle or ate too much salt? It's let up a bit - not so bad now. Sssshh - I'd say it's almost gone, but it might come back and wallop me if I do ;-P<br /><br />You're welcome, Muff! Glad to pass on the information. I figure they came to Philly, so I ought to do something in return. Especially since I was so not buying this year. Ugh.<br /><br />Vanessa, I laughed out loud - spelling it out because it was sooo funny to think of that song in conjunction to Lil Soul Sister. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Marmalade" rel="nofollow">Lady Marmalade</a> is one of the catchier Patti Labelle <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pF2otwl4ros" rel="nofollow">songs</a>. <br /><br />You are welcome, Ms. Campbell. I don't usually mention cloth dolls, but yours had the cutest expressions and an interesting array of complexions. I never realized how much difference the shape and the tilt of eyebrows could make. Thanks for stopping by; I'll add a link to your blog here. Good luck with your doll creating and dealing!D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-78776494620703932482012-06-03T08:24:31.864-04:002012-06-03T08:24:31.864-04:00Thanks for including me in your post.

I had to take it there. Thanks for the additional information. Nice to hear that Goldie and Tuzio-Ross were there. I met them both at the Int'l show in Washington DC. I camped out at Laura's booth for hours and left there feeling like we were the best of friends. She is so great at capturing multi cultural features on her dolls. <br /><br />Gitchee, gitchee, ya ya, ya ya...<br /><br />I have never seen the Soul Sister doll. She's a cutie. <br /><br />I'm headed to Pandora to find that song!Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027064808344974667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-10741833390964424012012-06-03T06:34:59.338-04:002012-06-03T06:34:59.338-04:00Thanks so much for all these links and contact inf...Thanks so much for all these links and contact info!Muffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06121187068323359131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-52589993076643553622012-06-02T23:54:15.961-04:002012-06-02T23:54:15.961-04:00I can imagine how stirring it would be to revisit ...I can imagine how stirring it would be to revisit a childhood doll. Soul Sister is adorable with those big sad eyes. And I love her hippie inspired frock. <br /><br />What’s wrong with your shoulder?Buffyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12581020240308677863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580986768097342172.post-55114249759294200152012-06-02T21:17:47.796-04:002012-06-02T21:17:47.796-04:00Thanks, Debbie!

I recall Anna's Collectibles being there at previous Shows. <br /><br />I am glad that you and Ms. Leo posted about the West Indies World Championship 2007 male doll.<br /><br />I think the Soul Sister might have been around 10" tall. I thought mine was shorter and narrower.

The exhibitors' contact information is always helpful.<br /><br />Anna's Collectibles is usually there annually with a variety of artist and recently manufactured dolls. I purchased a doll from her during one of the past shows I attended. She's a very nice woman. <br /><br />I'll have to contact Linda about her Soul Sister (if it is still available). I am curious to know the size.<br /><br />Thanks again for your thorough show report and also for the link to my blog regarding Linda's show perspective.<br /><br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.com
