Linda- Thanks for all the links, they've been very helpful. Have wrote them down in my notebook And thank you for the freecycle ad x
Herriotfan- Oh wow, your Mum must have loved doing that My mum only sews when she needs to, like if a button falls off a shirt or something Did your mum use felcro? Where did she buy it?
Pagan queen- I used to cut up socks, but then I ran out of old socks! What great fun you and your friend must have had!

Lizzy K- I've looked on eBay, but all the ones on there want you to buy the things right away, so thats no luck
Laura- I know, I love SW!

EB - I have looked on ebay and there's lots of Barbie clothes being auctioned. Make sure that you are on 'all items' or 'auction only' choices. Also you could try and change the distance on it so it widens the search. There's a few on there that are going for pennies and have no bids.

I have looked and walked round it twice, but no luck, and the ones I do find, they aren't really what suits my Barbie. The shrug Linda is knitting will totally suit her, and keep her warm. Funny, for the last few days, I have been thinking about next time it snows, what will I use to keep her warm.

Barbie might look quite young but looks can be deceptive, just look at Lulu . Barbie is actually the same age as me so you might want to be checking out Wallis or Dorothy P or some of the Debenhams sections

Al, Didnt know you were into a) Old women's Clothes b) Barbie dolls.

By the way, Dorothy Perkins and Wallis do actually do some nice clothes....well, some.
