Wow, what a great memory you just gave me! A neighbor lady used to crochet Barbie dresses for me when I was a little girl in the 1960's. I'm sure my Mom must've paid her on the sly, but she told me she made them for me because she loved to make them. Who knows? Maybe she did. I loved those dresses more than the store bought clothes my Barbie had. Thanks for bringing a smile to my face. :-)
