I'm Not jealous! I'm not jealous! I'm not jealous! Well, maybe a little bit! Happy you.... I do have a baby quilt which I was in the procsss of throwing away (I thought it was a rag) and I felt that there was something in it as I threw it into a discard pile (after my mother died). It was a cloth doll, complete but w/o any clothes made for it... I know that my mother made it for me for Christmas in 1945 but suddenly the war was over and Montgomery Ward's catalog again had such things as dolls, and she put this away and bought me my doll! The doll was wrapped in a cross stitched blanket her grandmother had made for her; my mother was named after her grandmother (Louisa Ann Conner), who was highly respected in her area in the later 1800 (and into early 1900). It was in a museum in La Conner, Washington, for a bit. And I had thrown it away!!!!!
