Oh my, I just went to a site mentioned by dunster, and as much as I love my DGD, there is no way I could or would pay that much for a doll. I lucked out this year when a friend was getting divorced and her only child, didn't take all her Barbie dolls, Ken and friends, as well as an American Girl doll that came with clothes, wardrobe, desk, brass bed and cradle. Thank God for the barter system, I only have to make a queen size quilt for her. I think I need to make shams, pillows, etc., etc. as she gave me a wonderful opportunity to give our DGD something we could never afford and she loved it at Christmas. I kept the cradle and wrought iron/wooden desk and I'm making new bedding for it, didn't like the black/white striped bedding. Now, in the words of my dear SIL, I need to make her one heck of a quilt, hope I'm up to the challenge. I thank God every day for my dear friends who have been there for me in times of need, love, hugs and encouragement.. God bless them every one.
